Didn't think that had anything to do with how far your tires ran out horizontally

ok quick lesson buddy

airbags: raise and lower the car, in the first pic, the car is RAISED more thus the fenders are further away from the tires and the wheels look like they stick out more.. when the car is lowered the fenders come closer to the tires and thus give the look that the wheels stick in more than the first pic

lack of knowledge is one thing, but ignorance is a lot worse

...thanks

...i understand that it raises and lowers the car, it just looks like if his car came "straight" down in the first pic, it would sit well on top of the tire. I've not seen many air rides adjust in person, I'm guessing the wheels camber in more as the car comes down.

As you adjust the car up or down the camber changes. The wheel doesn't sit at the same angle when its down as when its up. The higher up it is the less camber, therefore making the wheel stick out more and vice versa!

when you lower the car the wheels tuck in more
so if you ever have weak offsets it gets weaker coz it goes in more

Do you rock non-projectors on your 06-07 (I can tell by the door panel/keyless entry) by choice? I absolutely love your car btw, best coupe I've seen on these forums!

Haha, actually doesn't look too bad. I was gonna say that you were probably the only 06-07 to downgrade by choice Keep on keepin' on! Lookin' forward to new pics with your projectors when they are done!
