But having socks over them wont help when cops see it. I see no reasoning behind a itb if its a daily driven, occasional track car. Imo id rather buy a rrc or a rbc as it doesnt stand out. Especially now cops are everywhere. You want as little attention as possible. Something almost stock. Money would probably be better spent elsewhere. Well balanced car>outright power. But thats just my 2c anyway.

Are ITBs non-compliant with EPA regulations?

Just be careful with a test pipe and itb setup. Both of which very much defectable and carry hefty fines. Mostly what hau said with the emissions fine.

All valid points. The whole reason for itbs is to be different and that soundd... *drools* its on my wish list but yeah if I don't get that ill go rrc with a 70mm T.b
*sigh* wish we didn't have such strict rules

They are 17x9 +18

Thanks How did you fit them with +18? I've been looking at a new set (currently stock) and most places I've read recommend +38-+42 (I'm lowered about 1.5-2 inches).

It depends on how wide youre plan on going. Those offset wint fit if you get a 9inch wide wheel unless you run spacers

I think what Hau is trying to say is that +38 - +42 offset is a fairly weak offset range for our cars, if you slapped on 17x9's with that kind of offset, it just wouldn't be aggressive looking enough so you'd need to spacer them to make them look meaner and for a more flush/mexiflush look.

17x9" +18 Regamasters can fit within the guards even if the car is dumped to the ground, just need some guard work, camber kit, and a truckload of camber, I think Jay is running -3 camber all around. When Alex (plAythiNG) used to run these wheels, he had I think it was -3.2 or -3.4 offset on the rears. +18's are the more aggressive regas offset, they come in a weaker offset somewhere in the 30's.

But hot damn they look good on Jay's car.

Just a little tip, if you want low, dont get aggressive tyres... I get paid out for being so high because of my tyres!
