i had mine still fully there.. the only part that was rubbing off still was the top part where teh pinch weld is... i also cut the outsides of the fender liner to tuck into the lip of the fender..

Joel.

That's a good idea

Same problem here with the WS2

you guys wouldnt mind snapping me a pic of how you guys did it would you? i cant quite visualize that lol.

i want to slam mine, but i hear tire rub as it is when i back up with the wheels hard right, not bad, but still

also, im on SI's with 195/55's... i gotta have my meaty sidewalls :D

That's ur problem also... the 55s are too tall.. the correct size for our cars is 50... the 55s will throw ur speedo off a little too

SL0WEGG

shhhhh, coupe is my DD now. Id feel more comfortable driving around at stock ride height so i can run over anything and be able to drive it anywhere. It looks like its in race mode all the time on steelies lol. It'll just be stock ride height w/ the jdm corners, sidemarkers, oem hubcaps lol. Its gonna be sick.

QFT!!! thats the major part of the scrubbing issue.. 55 series, DAMN..

Welcome to my world! FML!

Monster truckin' EJ1 w/ side markers and hx wheels.

well, i like my 55's, imo they look alot better, and take up more of the wheel well, and, you cannot beat what i paid for them brand new(actually one week old, they were a customer take off), and they came off of a 95 db7.

right now i have the eibach springs, and it only rubs when backing up, i have a feeling its what i fixed before, part of the cai shield that i left there seems to fall out kind of, and rub. next time i put it in the air ill check it out, maybe that the shield out.

i dont want to SLAM my ****, but i want to take up 99% of the front wheel gap, which is to drop it about another inch, i dont believe id have a rubbing issue than...

next set of tires i put on will probably be 195/45's or 50's, but for now, the 55's work and look dope

Retracks > Track R's

not flaming, Clean ride, but thats 1 reason I changed my mind on Teal, every1 did the Teal w/ white. Those gold Konigs were bad ***.

Nice, there is a D.I.Y here on how to make your own tophats, I follow it, worked out and costed $20

Damn.... 55's are way to huge to try and tuck/ slamm 195/45's $200 Lowers your ride and clearance issues.

oh and those top hats arent custom.. they are replica gcs.. they are exact copies of the real gcs...

also u could go 45s but i still rock 50s and im pretty dang low.. if i wanted to go lower the 45s would get me like a 1/4in lower... 45s will also make ur speedo read a little faster..

g230sport

well i paid $280 for all 4 195/55/15's, they are dunlop direzza 101's or something. i know the tread pattern looks dope, they grip pretty damn good, and ride nice with the meaty sidewall, plus i like that look.

i think i made my mind up that i wont be going lower for a while. i gotta keep myself in check, i got a race car to finish, and 800$ to pay a month for my half of the bills...

in time though, i will be slammed! lol

89dxcivic

Were those from some local shop on ebay?? This guy was selling them awhile back for like $70 and looked exactly like those. Btw, whats your susp? I here good things about FF type1s. Waiting for escrow b4 I spend big $$ for the coupe..

..ouch, next time, onlinetire.com is your friend.

SL0WEGG

50 series ftw! although rt615s are too fat lol

ketchup!

same here. i cant go any lower or my resonator will be on the ground. im probably gonna get a custom midpipe made so that i can go lower

Joel.

If you do that, you should let me know about it (how much, size piping and all) because the stock WS2 resonator is huge, hangs too low and always gets in the way of my shifter. My exhaust pops it out of gear when I go over rail road tracks I need to keep my FLP!

bump for another black coupe.^^^^^

g230sport

i take it its the wings west?

if so i saw it on weksos after posting that haha.

i think that lip could potentially find its way on my car.

ugh, ive got too many plans, too many projects, too many things i want, and not enough time, and def not enough money lol

fernando.

Welcome to my life.

Looked great. Too bad it got smashed. I love BMW bottle caps but never saw a coupe pull it off. Good job.
