Default 95-97 Fitment thread

I've been thinking about having generation/body-style specific threads for a while and thought it was time we did it. The Wheels thread has degraded so much from what it started off as, and now is pretty much just a ongoing social thread, which is cool, but nobody actually posts their details and there are a TON of broken links and dead pics. I thought we could have generation specific showoff threads so people could post their setups with pics and details


When I've done this on other forums, it always worked well. Basically, everyone gets ONE post per car that they can edit and update as much as needed and there is ZERO chatter or comments, strictly a details only reference. Hopefully PD and RA40 would be willing to delete the off topic posts and keep it focused, after a while the other threads I started pretty much policed themselves.


90-94 Fitment thread
98-00 Fitment thread

Here is the setup from one of the other forums edited to suit us:

THIS IS NOT A SOCIAL THREAD!

Cars do not have to be slammed, flush, poking, insane stance or have stretched tires to be posted here. This is not a show off thread, this is a fitment reference thread to help new members and people who want to know what will fit their cars and generally how it will look.

NO TALK
NO BANTER
NO QUESTIONS
NO RANDOM PICS OR SMILEY FACES
NO WORK IN PROGRESS

FINISHED/DRIVEABLE CARS ONLY


Note: The latter is just to keep this on topic and with cars showing functioning setups rather than test fitting/nowhere near done cars. Might seem harsh but save that for your build threa or the wheels/pics threads and post here once your are done and driving it!

Please include 1-3(no more than 3 please) pictures showing the stance and fitment of the wheels on the car.

If you have multiple cars please post them together in your single post.
>>>> If you buy a new car, edit your existing post to add your new pics and specs, no need to delete your old stuff. <<<<
If you have or have had multiple setups on one car that are drastically different in look/fit/parts, please post one pic and specs for each setup.
If you have the same setup with noticably different specs on the wheels and tires please post pics with 1-3 pics of the stance fitment and different specs for each. (eg: show wheels and DD wheels)


Please post your specs below your link in the following format:

Wheel Brand/model/Spec(size/width/offset/disc):
Tire Brand/model/Spec:
Suspension parts:
Fender modifications:
Drop(fender heights are acceptable) and alignment spec (camber and TOE!):
(if on air, please post pics of all up, ride height, low ride height and aired out as well, where applicable)



Please use the "report this post" function for anything other than a properly formatted post so the mods can delete said post to keep this thread on topic.
Thanks!

I'll go through and combine a few of these threads tonight or tomorrow, the fitment is only different on the two different chassis. No difference in fitment for a '98-00 and '95-97 for example.

Fair enough, but the body styles are different and the average new member doesn't necessarily know that.
