Lowest Offset Possible

Hi Victor,

You'll be fine mate, our cars naturally camber negative when lowering so u will find that those wheels that look like they're sticking out actually tuck in once lowered.

i just wanted a different look...too many bigger and nicer gtc's out there at the moment >_<

Hi Roy,

so I am guessing you selling your GT-C? :D Your's look good already, black on gold. Still the only one in WA.

With lowering, I won't be doing it yet because 1. my driveway is abit high and even now with lower profile tyres and big lip kit, I have to go up slow. 2. my other daily car, Mitsubishi Mirage, is on 17's and rub when having 3 people in the car, so can't risk with my V rubbing if I have to have 3 people in the car. I will be tempted when I get another daily.

So with the cruise, do you know when you heading back out yet? Can you still make the cruise?

thanks for the pics bee ...i never intended going coilovers and with 10.5 +0 offset, it would poke +4mm more ...so its a tad too much poke for my liking.

ur last pic with the coilovers is good flushness ...but i can't see going over any road humps riding that low.

same here mate, trying to convince the other half that an evo 9 is actually a better family car. Had a look at a couple already but importing one in may be a better option.

decided to hold off on the wheels for now coz after looking at the flushness of ur wheels, the ones I was looking at would stick out 22mm more...too much poke and would require a lot of roll/pull and maybe -3.5 to -4 camber

i dont think you can import the 9.i had the 7.5 before and signed up evo oz. i read a thread on there and apparently 9 was not available for importing since adm ones were sold here locally.

i never really liked the evo because i had the gta which was auto/tip but just recently has a test drive in an 8mr, adm9 i just fell in love.
