That's pretty low and aggresive offset in the front....do you rub the wheel well when fully turned?

as for the offset. ex-r has it correct. (iono how... but he's right)

as for susp. i am running Tein Ha. the ride is very nice.

i just need to figure out how to clear brembo bbk in the front and i will be a happy camper!!
LOL. I cheated. You posted the specs on another forum. Any word on the face types of those wheels?

on flat ground i have no problem. on driveways, i cant fully lock steering because the fronts get tucked too much and starts to touch fenders.
