I would go lower but it's winter and my focus is already a plow. I'm thinking of doing 5-10mm spacers in the rear tho

The fitment on my Fittipaldis may not have looked insane in the pics I posted, but zoom in on one of them...

Hey guys, going with a entirely new set up. My K Sport coil overs will be here in a few days. I just got my new wheels in a couple weeks ago. I was wondering what are the best camber and toe arms to go with? Here is a pic of my new wheels.

Thats what bags are for

It's a photoshop, but damn it looks good

 

[Shocktech102]

Guys, I'm looking at new wheels. So 16x8.5 et39 or et27? I know I can fit et27, ET39 is my question.

How do you know it's photo shopped???

You can tell by looking at it.

8.5j et39 might require a small spacer in the front.....but I vote et39 in the front and 27 in the rear

How do you know it's photo shopped???

there is a clearly photoshopped mismatched part of the ground, the words on the building are backwards, and it's a US Focus but if you look it looks like it's RHD.

Copy the picture, paste it in paint, and mirror it horizontally. Then the photoshopped-ness will really stand out to you.

It is a pretty good photshop for the most part. The wagon definitely looks awesome.

Except for the horrendous wheels, I concur.

Matt is there a difference in the lip sizes for the two offsets or is all in the pad thickness like a Team Dynamics PR 1.2?

Also are these every day drivers or just show wheels?

The reason I ask is staggered looks good but you can't rotate tires per corner.

Josh's suggestion is a good one though, my BBSs are 17x8.5 at 39. I run a 3mm spacer up front and an 8mm in the rear with 215/40s and it fits great.

No they are for pussies.

 

[norcalfocus01]

No they are for pussies.

I wouldn't say that. I'd love to have my car on bags. I can't lower it more and still drive it now. Bags would let me do both.

No lip sizes will not be affected. They will be replacing the HRE's as DD wheels in the summer if I get them and I know the pains of going staggered already. They are made by Carline if anyone wants to guess what wheels they are.

Yup I love being able to air it out at a show or in a parking lot, especially once the yellow car gets redone in spring I will want to protect it's new Reiger front and lip.

Where did you get the lip for the reiger bumper? I've been looking for a while now and can't find one

I wouldn't, if you can't drive it low you shouldn't be able to have it low.
Just like show drops, it's like "hey I drive around with an inch of clearance, but since it's show time ill slam these coils the whole way down..."

Ain't happenin'
