when it was that low on those wheels the tire would rub the front fender going up driveways and it rubbed all the paint off. It could have been fixed by running 245/30 tires instead of 35 series. You just have to drive careful and it wont scrape, rub, or anything.

Would have weaker offsets helped.

The Wald kit looks good when the car is slammed this low, but is this even a real car? It looks like a toy for some reason...

i'm going to slam mine soon, just waiting on getting a new front lip, then leave it like that for the huntington beach meet (if i really go). I'm just really worried about my rears. Did you guys shave or roll your rear fenders? bc mine is slightly shaved and i'm afraid it'll cut the tires or mess up my rims. can they still be rolled?

I'm rolled. It's going to be harder to roll if you are partially cut because there won't be much leverage to make the bend.

i'm pretty sure that is a real car, it looks like they were setting up for a photoshoot.

Grant, Chris... how do you guys manage inclines?... is it worth it? I'm moderate and still have issues in places?... I like the look (maybe not "slammed" - but more aggressive than Eibach) - I just don’t want to molest the bumper's lip!

Do you have to refrain from “spirited” driving to keep from scraping?…

You just have to be mindful of the roads and take your time doing the speed bumps and inclines (drive slow and at an angle). There is definately a difference in driving a car with a mild drop (1" and under) than driving one beyond what most people drop there cars.

No, I don't refrain from doing spirited driving but if the roads are not in my favor, I don't tend to push it.

Curious to what offsets you are running on those wheels.. and what brand/model are they btw?. HRE 648R ?

Im currently looking for the same size wheels for my Sedan, but im not entirely sure on how aggressive an offset I can run, as I have heard many things. I dont mind rolling the fenders or modding wheel wells.

I plan to join the you guys in the dumped Sedan crew
