btw Picka, if it has coilovers, doesn't that mean you can go lower?? Although definitely roll your guards before you do that.

Re: Picka's Fto
Picka do u mind if I come and have a look at your wheels so I can suss out the wheel arch clearance and what not?
I had grid r in 18" but they were stolen from my car recently and they were a tad too big, probably won't get grid r again but I just curious about offset and width.

Re: Picka's Fto
Actually, ive been eying off the ROTA's myself. Ultimately need a set of gunmetal SSR's, but thats not likely. The ROTA's look almost exactly the same, so they are a possibility. Personally, id be going for 17 x 8 though and it wont be for a little while. Also looking at the Drifttek's as they are similar too.Looks great, would it be *~delightful!~* if I got the same set?
Anyway, look great!

There not height adj coilovers, they're camber adj at the front and i think just dampner adj at the rear.bjk wrote:Thought you were getting RPF1's?silverGPX wrote:Looks great, would it be *~delightful!~* if I got the same set?

im not 100% sure cause i haven't had too much to do with coilovers in the past but i dont think they can be
adjusted.

idea.

They don't come in a 17x8 otherwise i would have gone them aswell, the drift r's only come in a 9, they fit prettydstocks wrote:Actually, ive been eying off the ROTA's myself.
