I know my garage is dirty haha. It's an old detached garage with doors that don't quite close properly.

They come Hyperblack from Rota, so they have that polished look.

more pics please, these look amazing, just what i wanted but didn't know how it would fit. More pics of close up on front wheel to see gap, do you think a 235 or 245/35 would fit?

I didn't measure the exact drop, but with BC coilovers, the threading gap is one spanner in the fronts, and one standard 14mm socket in the rears. Had to use something to make sure the sides were even right?

I'll take some pictures of the gap for you tomorrow. So far, no rubbing for the first 100 miles.
225s are just perfect in the front.
235/40s would fit in the rear without rubbing
I think 245/35 would need to be raised a little bit to clear.

Hey, your garage doesn't shut all the way - that'll likely let a bunch of leaves in!

Oh, and the dropped BRZ looks great. Would those 18x9.5 fit without coilovers? They'd pooch out a lot I'd imagine.

ABQautoxer · 08-21-2012, 11:31 AM

So can I come over and ninja the entire ride height up 1/4-1/2"?

poormans_LFA · 08-21-2012, 01:55 PM

Wow. Those rims look awesome! Please feel free to post some HQ pics.
