Anytime you need a 25MM spacer it may be time to just change the set up...dunno.

whats so special about that setup? it's going to tuck so bad when it gets lowered.. unless thats what the 25mm spacers are for, which brings us to the question of.. 25mm spacers on aftermarket wheels? why?

You could dial in some more positive camber (get it to like -1 deg) to reduce some of the tuck.

well i don't know whats up with them but i don't believe there is a specific vendor on here that sells them, plus i would assume they cost just a tad more than dpe's and hre's and probably take longer to make? maybe.. but id be down for some haha i jsut dont know how they would look like on a coupe

i just think once you start spending more than 10% of your cars value on wheels, you have to take a step back.

of course theres some variability in new-used prices on these cars but you get the idea.

lawl. powdercoating/spacers/ebay stripe...600 / 50000 = 1.2%

of course if you're rich it doesnt matter but i hate seeing kids spend so much $ on wheels. its kinda like poor people with nice cars but crappy houses.

I have more money in mods than my car is worth stock now...lol

its kinda like poor people with nice cars but crappy houses.
Better than people who have money and buy 5bdrm houses when only 2 people live in it...
Different stroked for different folks. NOt everyone "needs" an amazing house. I personally would rather have a few nice cars and a average house than and huge house with 1 car.
