Default Who is using 215/45/16 on EG6... post pic

I am wondering how an EG will look on the slightly bigger 215/45/16 tires what I ordered already...

Here is my car on 205/45/16

Yes, currently waiting the camber kits to arrive from Kteller (coilower, LCAs received already, real stabizer and subframe brace installed already) in order to put the hole thing together in 1 action.

215's will be great as long as they dont rub. Whats your offset? What brake setup is that? What size front rotors? I'm looking for something that will clear 16's or even 15's would be great with 4 piston calipers

The front lip is either the Mugen 1st gen or the Wings West RS (mugen copy). I have the Wings West one on my car. The best part is that it looks great even if you don't paint it since the ABS plastic finish matches the OEM side skirts...

Wilwood brake... 310mm 4 piston on the front, custom 310mm Wilwood kit with stock calipper on the rear. That '16 OZ Crono wheel is 37mm offset, but will clear 42mm as well I beleive. CE28s ordered already...

It is a MS-Design spoiler set + a Spoon style duckbill.

Why is the center grill in the front bumper so much taller than normal? Is that a EDM difference or did you mod that yourself? If it's a DIY, it looks very professional...

I agree. Looks good.

If that thing had any form of a drop it'd be one of the cleanest eg's I've seen.

Hood (modified stock) is my design, also keeping the engine bay a bit cooler.
Front bumper (modified stock) with the larger grill serves the same purphose.
Paint is B92P...

Thank you all! 1 more...

I gotta hand it to you. That front bumper looks very nicely done. I'm not really into the oversize inlet "look", but the way you got it to "roll" into the grill looks completely stock. If you don't mind me asking, how did you pull that off on an ABS bumper cover?

Those look like 20's.

Maybe it's just the design of the wheel.

Damn those ninjas and their illusions.

yeah there only 16s. your car will ride good with the 45 series but you have to watch the fenders, they might catch in big bumps, my 40 series rubber skims sometimes.

I had the idea and then just explained it (just expand stock lines up... and keep it symmetrical)... those guys doing plastic job all the time, it is their profession.

Then I bought the grill what my mechanic installed into the bumper... not a big deal.

I hope I answered your question....
