What are those wheels? What specs?

Looks like a nice stance to me. I love white wheels.

They look like Evo X wheels in white...

If I remember correctly they are 18x8.5 can't remember the offset though...

Your diff is going to break. Why would you ever run staggered rims on an awd car in the first place. Especially that extreme of a difference.

[I<3Groceries]

Those forged 3 piece rims must've been pricey.

But I see you are rolling 265 series tires? I've never heard of anybody being able to stuff that size tire on a 6. I think 255 is, or was generally accepted as the limit. How'd you do it? Must take the perfect combo of wheel width and offset. If you aren't rubbing on your suspension, I don't see how you have paint left on your fenders.

[HXC LOL]

Seems like at his height, as long as the suspension is stiff enough, he will not be rubbing in the rear. @:: Gusto ::, what is the offset on those wheels, and what width tire are you running in the front?

@:: Gusto :: your exhaust surrounds are mashed...

Although i don't agree with the running of a staggered setup on AWD, his setup isn't going to cause issues. And if you think it is you must not be thinking very hard or you would see that it isn't the width that would cause issues, its the rolling diameter of the wheels, so if he had 17" in the front with 18" in the rear, that would cause a huge problem. But he isn't,

@caesura Do your homework and apply some knowledge before opening your mouth with the intent to bash.

@:: Gusto ::, well played sir.

Also, my wheels are not EVO X wheels, they are Sonic Tuning ST120s 18x8 +35

Okay, sorry you are correct, I always thought running a staggered setup on awd ruins the diff but I researched and it appears if you have the same rolling diameter then you are good. Thanks for correcting me.

This has to be the perfect example of under education. I mean yes it looks good but running taggered sizing on an AWD car is FAIL. Your abs system, and entire AWD system itself hates you.

[Downmented]

@secondchance

You have to be about retarded to attempt to question his level of education here. You have failed to read he posts above yours where this has already been addressed. His setup will cause no issues with his awd system. The rolling diameter is the only hing hat would affect his car in a negative way. You could cause he same damage you are thinki of simply by running uneven sized tires on a squared setup.

So before you open your mouth like you know what the fuck your talking about, you might want to do your homework and remove your foot from your mouth.

[mazdafreak]

Okay guys....so I'm on evo x wheels....and my fronts are basically finger gap if that, and my whole wheel well liner and everything is all cut up and breaking off, so I'm basically hitting the top of the tires with that lip u can see sticking down from muddle of fender well ((white pinch well looking thing)).....What can i do to prevent this...I'm on a 225/40 up front....so what can I do, smaller width tire or what? Since I do want to go a tad bit lower.

[dastpe]

order stiffer springs. pull the front fender. trim wheel liner.

[mazdafreak]

Thanks! I will trim the liner this weekend! But what springs do you guys recommend?? I just ordered w.e bc came with on the extreme drop package about a yr ago....And I was planning on going.stiffer springs, looks like its about time.

[sidekick]

this thread brings the lulz

call BC and ask, or call Stance and ask them, im almost 100% sure both those companies have stiffer springs as well as springs that allow you to go lower.

Thanks...yeah I was looking up sumthaiguys setup, he ran a 9k/7k from what I read, idk I'm also gonna contact bc.....I'm going lower and new wheels with a more aggressive setup!

[:: Gusto ::]

the rolling difference on my tires is like .03% .... your are pretty much allowed up to a .3%....

I do still rub a bit.. i'm running 1click back from full stiff in the rear..
barely get rub... on the edge of my fenders.

Ive been in talks w/ BC for stiffer spring rate in the rear... & apparently nothing is offered at this time. I'm going to have to source out a heavier set else where.

I rolled my rear fenders a few weeks back.. & dumb ass me was in a rush & not thinking about the small dent I had in my rear fender seem.. & i buckled my quarter panel.. hah
O well... might call dent wizard.. or just take it to a shop & have it cut & flared-out a bit more... so i can run my 10.5" wheels alil better.. hah

its a 235 frnt & a 265 in the rear
the rear offset is PERFECT!!!
about 1mm between my rear lower control arm..
on jack stands w/ the car in 1st you really get an appreciation for it.. hah
It's so damn close its scary.. hah

@Downmented : you should be a mod for this forum... heh

Yea my exhaust shrouds are smashed.. I have 2 spare sets... heh
my car used to be a lot lower... use to tuck tire in the rear w/ my old set up..
& well .. since it was on springs.. come winter.. it got into a battle w/ some froZen snow.. & broke.. o well.. - ill toss the other ones on @ some point.. I only leave those on for the reflectors.. when my car is parked on the street...

[:: Gusto ::]

great... now 1 of the adjustment knobs on my co's broke... =0(

[Stangcobra]

Question here.
I'm on racelands currently(fuck them, they suck) but I'm too broke to buy "real" coils.
What can I do to go lower? currently theyre just spun all the way down but I want to go slightly lower. I dont want to make the car unsafe(took the helpers out once and it was fucking sketchy) but I want to lose some fender gap. Ideas?

you could remove the bump stop(s)... & take off the collars...
COULD...i dont recommend it.. it will ride like crap & you could break something...
but I know other people who have done that... for stance.

[Stangcobra]

Bumpstops are gone, one collar may go soon

[Downmented]

You dont want to make it unsafe but you want to go lower than your current coils were designed to go? And they are slammed and you still have fender gap? Are you riding on 16'' steelies?

[Stangcobra]

Closed minded haters gon' hate
if youre not into fitment and don't understand that some of us arent content with sortaflush perhaps this is the wrong thread for you

Go fuck yourself with a goat.

what I do know, stangcobrapenistoucher, is that 3 or 4 posts up,
you admitted you're on cheap shit, garbage ass coilovers because you're too cheap to spend on good shit, yet you want to go lower, but don't want to be unsafe?

Shit son, you're probably ALREADY unsafe. Why not just fucking heat the coils with a torch and get it overwith.

If you wanna do something right, you gotta spend fucking money, even if it's faggoty stance bullshit. If you don't wanna spend the money, you might as well not even fucking do it, cuz ghettoing up your suspension is begging to fucking get yourself killed.

What do I care tho, you kill yourself with dumbshit suspension mods, one less stancefag on the road..........




Calling people haters doesn't fucking work when the shit you do is hated by everybody but the other fags who do the same shit as you.

[Haltech]

wow, interesting thread. Stance? seriously?

[Captain KR]

@Stangcobra I hope your springs break whole going over a bump sending the steering wheel into your face making you a brain dead lump of shit......... Seriously go fucking take a knife and run into it until all that herra frush bullshit bleeds from your veins...... Eat a Dick Bitch

[Stangcobra]

Wow, very very mature of you. Making threats against a minor on the internet. Perhaps your local police would like to see this?
Seriously...why would you ever post something like that on a public forum

[Doberman]

I don't see any threats. The usual cocksucker comments, but no threats. Might want to recheck the post.

Explain where I threatened you cock.sucker

BTW idgaf if you are a little boi or not I still think your a stupid little cock sucker who is going to kill himself from his Hella frush aspirations and unsafe vehicle call whoever you want little cock sucker I don't see any threats here.....

[Domino81]

How did a thread about stance turn into an argument?

[Stangcobra]

No idea, don't care, like I said haters gon' hate, some people's opinions about what I want to do to my car on the internet really have no bearing on what I do. Stay out of the threads that pertain to automotive modifications you do not enjoy and I will do the same.

[XLT_66]

Stupid kid is stupid. Ban hammer

[Downmented]

The only hate happening here is on your stupidity, noone is jealous here of your wanna be flush, you have wheel gap right now, your nowhere near flush right now. So go fuck yourself.

Im lower than you,
flusher than you,
and faster than you.
So im not sure where you got any signs of hate from

[Forsworn71]

This is supposed to be a community, calm down guys. If you dont like it then dont be in here. Its their car, they should do what makes them happy since its their money that theyre throwing at it. The hate should go towards 8thcivic. I dont like stance much but I was just checking it out to see whats possible because I think some of these guys are crazy, and it intrigues me

[Stangcobra]

Meh, whatever. Guess I learned that my $25 here is for the f/s section only.

[secondchance]

I think you should focus less on the 25$ and the dick comments youre receiving, and actually read between the lines. Removing parts of the coils to achieve a lower ride is 1. stupid and 2. dangerous. YOU chose to cheap out and buy shitland coils, so live with that reality until you have the 900$ to get some ksports or whatever.

Are douchebags douchebags? yes, they sure are, BUT, uneducated kids were uneducated kids first, so you can't blame the douches for douching on you. I mean its bad enough you are stretching the fuck out of those 215s like you drive a 240. Its a mazda, not a volks whaggin bro, put some real tires on that thing (245 or 255 40s) and BAM wheel gap no more.

[Stangcobra]

see I liked your whole post right up until you told me to put 245 or 255 series tires on my car, and then told me its not a vw and a 240. Again, this is the one stance/fitment/offset/hellaflush/whatever thread this forum has. Stretched tires and camber are a fact of life if youre into that scene. I don't know what people do not understand about that. I was asking about removing these parts of the coils because a lot of VW guys do it and I wanted to know if anyone had done it to the mazdaspeed racelands...thats all

[Downmented]

@Stangcobra You are missing the point. Your initial post about this stupidity stated that you didnt want to make your car unsafe, which in fact you have. Therefor let the flame begin, then you get defensive about "stance" You're a scene kid, a groupie, a sucker for trend. Dont get defensive when you come into a performance oriented forum and start talking stance. Yes there is a small section (this specific thread alone) that relates to "AGGRESSIVE OFFSET" but this is mostly for folks like myself who are into Form+function. And lets be honest, your sig is the perfect example of a cheap build.

You have rapeland coils, and rotas. You driving on Rotas alone make your car unsafe, not to add in the extra fail of tire choice.

If your so into "stance" and safety, then do you remember the Minty Fresh 350z from the west coast? He royally fucked that car from a pothole/blowout combo. The car was totalled.
