And that's just being mild, since now a days boys are running 11.5 - teens offsets in front lol
im going for a semi-agressive setup so like around -3 camber in front so ill probably do an 11.5 -17 in front. but keep in mind running 20s

These are 04 headlights. So they are there from factory. However I added CCFL tubes

This picture was before I painted them black. So the reflection is way less now

Ya I was debating whether I should get 06 and add another projector or keep the 04 since they have the clearance strip. Glad I went with 04
