Jays BOM DC5s

[Hau]

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.

What im trying to say is that if you go 17x9 +38 it will fit the front but not on the rears. Any highrr offset on 17x9 wont fit as youd hit the strut and rear trailing arm. 17x9 +35 will be the highest offset you can fit without hitting the rear trailing arm with about -2 camber and rolled guards. Have a look at the wheel fitment thread on here and it will give you an idea of what specs youd like to run

Oh yeah, completely forgot about the other side of the equation. Thanks for correcting me, completely forgot about the strut and trailing arm.

Prash use to have 17x9+38 on the rear.....
But yes It came very close to the rear arm.

Looked good at the garage 88 meet. Shame about the crack on the rear bar though!

Yeah.. thats the result of the hit and run i copped about a couple weeks back... need to find a good painter to colour match.. but i'll be holding out until the mugen lip arrives.

Prash had to run 3mm slip on spacer as it was hitting though... REAR.

A wee bit bored at work. So heres an update guys. Ive installed my new flywheel and exedy stage 1 clutch plus innovative 60a engine mounts and mmmm car drives soooo different now. I love it!
Tomorrow she will be going in to have that nasty rear bumper fixed thanks to some random jerkoff lol. Also a front lip painted and fitted.
The following week I will be getting a tune from adrian at silverwater auto. Just in time for summer cruises
