Smile The Day Has Finally Come

Got Rid of the old pictures bec the ones i had on here were fuzzy for some reason. so i listened to everyone and got a flickr account. hope these are better! Also i Just waxed the whole damn car so its spotless, so i had to take some new ones anyways.

just got a new set of rims put on, there atech finalspeed favor-ix's, there 15's with a +35 offset on stock height, the back rubs but man does it handle good, the tires are 205-50-15 nittos, well heres the newest pictures before it started raining. feel free to ask as many questions or just tell me what ya think!














Heres The Rest Of The Pics If You Guys Want To See The Rest

Camber bolts are for the fronts...u need stiffer shocks/rear springs preferrably linear springs or 195/50R15 tires for the rear. It always rub when I had my 15x7 +45mm offset wheels with 205/50 tires & stock/Eibach prokit springs. But ever since I changed to T1R rear springs which are stiffer with less coils, it never rubbed again.

the only reason why you rub is because its such soft suspension. the wheels are nice tho.

Well i kinda didnt have very much money for the wheels as it is so hopefully i can get it to not rub bec i cant spend anymore to get it not to with some new suspension. Im going to shave off all the plastic and stuff in the back and hope that does the trick.

dayem, it looks nice, but I think you should drop it to take away that gap

well ya im sure it would look nice but for me its not practical, if the back is rubbing as it is theres no way i couldnt get it to not scrape with it lower, id love to lower it but im happy with the way it is bec if i get it to not rub than i can road race anywhere and everywhere without having to worry about fat people being in the back or a whole car load. but ya im glad u like it but its not for me now especially since it would cost a lot to do it right with coil overs and stuff

A roof rack would look sexy on it. Yakima's aren't that expensive either. Looks good, though.

ya it would b badass with a roof rack eventho i wuldnt use it for wat it was made for but hey thats ok. I wont ever prolly get one bec i need to save for my wedding and a house soon. I mean the new wheels were only bec the tire place screwed up my stock painted ones. But ya it ended up coming out good bec i got new wheels for hella cheap! Hahahahahaha

thanx man. Ya i think it looks simply amazing. I cant believe how much different a good set of tires and wheels could make the car look soooooooo much different. But ya im really glad everyone likes it as much as i do!

photos are over saturated but your GD looks great!
I think the only reason you rub is because your suspension is so soft. IIRC, tanabe's gf210's only lower the front by an inch and the rears by a half inch and the spring is 15% stiffer than oem.

btw, photobucket down samples photos. get a flickr account
