For anyone who wants to run spacers please add extended wheel studs

Damn that pretty low. What suspension setup are you using? Do you get bumpsteer? What are the benefits of using the DC5-R LCA's? Thanks!

The benefit is it pushes the bottom of the wheel out 15mm for increase neg camber, plus the stock rubber bushings have been mugenized

Looks very nice! I hope to get near that low when my MF10's come in. What offset are those?

They are pretty nice. I installed a set on a customer's EP here last year.

So you guys were able to get both the camber and toe you wanted with this setup?

If you dont mind, can we see pics of the control arm, just curious how it looks like on an EP. Nice ride by the way, keep it up. Can't wait to see the N1's in your ride.

If you get a chance, snap a pic of those control arms next time you have your wheel off.

I personally think you need to raise it just a tad bit, maybe about .5". Other than that, the car looks great!
