I love them. But we'll see how sunken in they are once I lower the car. This is just my temporary set until I see how aggressive I can take it.

Lowered:



Front wheel facing forward, no spacer needed IMO:



Front wheel facing backwards:



Rear wheel facing forward, 10mm spacer on order:



Rear wheel facing backwards:



You could probably get away with a 3-5mm spacer for the front, but Im happy with where the sit. The rear however needs a spacer or a wider wheel/lower offset.

Does adding a spacer or going with a lower offset in the rear have the same affect as going with wider wheels in terms of handling?

Yes, the car will under steer a bit more. When I hit the track the spacers are coming off. I'm only running them for aesthetic purposes on the street.

Oh, does anyone know of any rear lateral links that aren't $600? I don't think the Whiteline camber bolts will give me enough of an adjustment. My rear camber is at -2.3* right now.

Aren't they the limited edition with machined lips? RE30 also had a limited run kinda like that, but with formula silver face. Awesome wheels!!
