Aggressive Wheels & Stretched Tires: Post 'Em Up! [[Some NSFW]]

Dang...I didn't get the camber I was looking for..even AFTER modifying the cusco negative upper a arms. Oh well, guess I gotta do more custom work in the future. I need another 1.5 degrees of camber, so that means I'll also swap the 15mm spacer I just put on with 25mm spacers.
Specs for those that haven't seen....
Work Variazna T1S. 20x9.5 -12 (with 15mm spacer) and 20.10.5 +0 (NO spacer). Tires are 225/35 all around. Now that I have more fender room in the rear I'll step it up to a 235/35 and the fronts will be replaced with a 215/35. Front camber is -4.7 and rear camber is -7.5.

They're holding up quite well...some wear of course, but my toe is on point so it's not too bad at all. As for fender work I'm going to push out the rears a little more and then smooth them out followed buy paint. I'll also camber the rear another half a degree once I get custom toe arms made through Battle Version that way I don't keep scraping the wheels on the inner part of the fender every time I go up a driveway.

Because if I roll the fender anymore, it's going to affect how the door closes. I can flare it up some, but that will only do so much. It's hitting the inner part of the fender, so it's almost clearing. I'm going to need it done when I go with bags, and when I go with bags, since I cant use toe arms, I'll be modifying the spring bucket. The problem now is that the toe arm is at it's limit, otherwise I would have already added more camber.
The problem isn't that the fender is a little wavy, we all know that's from the spot welds so that can't be smoothened out without using bondo or previously cutting the fender and then rolling.

vip doesn't mean ignoring the fact that the wheel specs do not suit the car
the cleanest vip cars are those that know what they are doing which includes knowing what NOT to do, bags is one thing but with coilovers that much camber and that much work is going overboard
just because it has MORE camber, doesn't mean its more VIP, there are plenty of VIP cars that have a lot less camber and look a lot more clean
plus real vip is on a vip platform car, all others are just imatations, when it comes down to exact definitions

ah gimmie a break with all that vip inspired, vip style, its VIP or not at all
just because a wheel like the t1s has been used by those pursuing the style of VIP in a VIP platform car doesnt mean the WHEEL is vip
and there is NOTHING vip about excessive camber, its been done all throughout the styles, euro, drifter etc and those aren't called vip
all of a sudden t1s and negative camber=vip? if so then 80% of us with t1s' should be VIP inspired right? gimmie a break
