old wheel set up vs new wheel set up

Old: Copper VMR v710 | 19x9.5 +22 squared on Hankooks v12 235/35
New: Matte gray Works Gnosis CV202 | 19x9.5 +20 f | 19x11 +25 rear on Hankooks V12 Evo 2 | 245/40 f | 275/35 r

To fit the rear, camber is at 6.4 with max aftermarket toe bolts for closer to 0 toe.
Fenders slightly pulled.

More car photos at my flickr

Cheers! lol

^ And I thought my -2.7 camber was a lot for 19x11 +25! The 275s look kind of stretched to me, I wonder what 285/35/19s would look like..

It doesn't look like your wheels fit right

I don't get what he's doing, either. Must be a StanceNation thing.

Don't get why you would want your car to look like you have a broken axle but to each their own.

I'll keep you posted though.

Ive looked at several videos and like the V3s, wasn't sure if you actually had a set or not.
Thank you Chris! yeah It turned out great, I really am happy with those oval tips. I'm sure you will eventually hear it sooner or later, and I'm touching base with Alex this upcoming Saturday for some more goodies . Yeah definitely keep me posted.

Speaking of the V3s they are really top quality and best output as well, and no I haven't had them ever, just got them and going to get them installed soon

That will happen after I get the heatshield adjusted because the MXP Y-Pipe is rattling against it at some point so I need to get it on a lift monday and look at it where the noise is coming from.

I wonder where they source those tips?
Yeah, well John you will be seeing my car tomorrow anyway so you'll be able to look at it yourself and see whether you at least like this mod this time I'll probably snap few pics tomorrow while we're at it too

I'm pretty sure they were welded on, unlike the old Invidia tips that were removable.

I'm subbed to your build thread, so I've seen these new pics.

Not unsure at all, Tony. Rather, I'm pretty confident I want the calipers painted. The only thing I'm not sure about is whether to go with a bronze, copper, or this beautiful Rio Yellow Pearl. Leaning towards the Acura color.

Thing is, after 3 years and 3 winters and 20k miles, my OEM rotors are starting to age. And since I like to plan things out years in advance, I'm going to dovetail new rotors/pads with a caliper-painting project... which is still a few years away.

2014 Sedan Chat Thread Mini-Meet

Myself, Mik3G37S, doublea88 and Choman in Binghamton, NY today.



Three 6MT Sedans, modified and lowered. One G35x, towering over the rest.



Two rear spoilers, two chrome lips. And apparently 3 sets of mudflaps. Who knew those were optional? (Not Mike, LOL)
