car looks so clean, little more low and some more camber thats all it needs lol.... what kinda of headers are those? ebay? if so how much of a hassel was the fitment

 

[RicoP5]

more low coming. air ride.

and yeah maybe some camber.

i beleive obx got them from a guy locally. fitment was great

Very sweet! what is the offset on those X wheels? I know they are 8.5 wide do they have a 38 offset? my 8 wheels poke and I love it

 

[RicoP5]

yep 38 offset

 

[MazdaSport20]

Awesome man! they look killer on your red! do you have stretched tires? I'm running 205/40s on my 8's and the tires sit flush with the fender while the wheels poke

 

[RicoP5]

215/35. was told to go 205 but idk or maybe 215/40 it all depends on how ill be ending up doing things and when its time to do air ride/camber

 

[visiongt9506]

how much does the rims poke out from the rear fenders with the 38 offset. im ordering wheels with a 20 offset and i just want to see what im gettin myself into lol with maikin fitment. any shots of the poke of wheel?

 

[RicoP5]

i can take a closer top side pic at lunch.

 

[hat1018]

38 offset, do you rub with the Prokit springs?

 

[RicoP5]

yes because of the heavy a$$ subs lol things weight like 60 pounds.

with them off rarely . only on a hard dip or anything to that matter

 

[RicoP5]

looks like ill have v brace and ladder brace coming on the way. and a re tint this week

also got the adjustable end links

 

[RicoP5]
