Default why dosent this make sence on Sportmax 002's and a +0 offset with out tires sticking out !!! check i

hey everyone!! well just wanted to see if anyone has a good answer for this question. why is it that this picture of this DA with 002's dont stick out like everyone elses, not to say Civic's but DA's as well? any suggestions? I originally wanted to buy these wheels. had to stick with 501 which has a +15 offset instead of +0........

no spacers, that would make them sit even further out. camber is the key, if you can handle tire wear!

negative camber doesnt wear out tires that much faster....

as long as yoru toe is set you will only cut a thousand or two miles off the total milage.

i ride slammed with negative 3.5 camber and my tires wear even for the past 3 years.
