2.5ill's impreza with sneak peak wheels

[2.5ILL]

NEW UPDATE. Got some wheels for my protege. they are very aggressively stanced once i get some coils. just blew all my money on a new tv and nikon d3100 though. here are some cell pics.
specs are
Ridler 655 17x8 +0 all around. Very low offset for proteges from what ive seen online

With a little camber and alot of low, it will look sick

[1fstsdn]

^^^^^agreed. A lot of low and it will look good.

[MadMax]

I really like those Wheels

[7ender]

Like everyone said, with some more low it'll look awesome

Help me rep the 2.5i fitment game. Make me proud son.

A local shop here in Denver had an sti hood for sale so i bought it real cheap. Its the darker silver but goes well with my wheels so im gonna keep the color.

i see potential！

how much camber should i go in the front and rear? i finally found someone in denver who can roll fenders so im gonna try to fix my fitment before winter so im good for next spring

I love the color choice on the wheels man. Its gonna look even better once you lower it. Just add negative camber until its not hitting or rubbing anything when you lower it. So its more like what camber you have when you are done as opposed to how much you should go.

When's it going lower homie?

oh okay i gotcha. so it depends on the car really. like how much the fenders are rolled and pulled or the offset of the wheel. thanks.

well right now i only have like 200 in the bank bc it took up a lot of my money to get coils and springs but i start my new job in 2 weeks so first check i get its going all the way. here is a pic of the coils as i sit now

[2.5ILL]

gotta go looooow

[Niterider03]

Looks like its well on its way. Looks good. Try spraying wd40 or pb blaster and using a hammer to get the collar loose.

yeah i didnt have any wd40 and only had one "sick day" off work so i guess its good till spring. the roads out here suck for being way low bc of all the storm drains and curbs.

[b00duh]

what coilovers are you on?

[2.5ILL]

MDU. they are an email coilover and its all i could afford at the time.

Looks like you are too close to the CV boot. You might want it just a couple more mm's up than that. It looks like there is grease around that area also which may be from the CV wearing out. Just a heads up, because that's money you could spend on something else instead of a driveshaft. The CV boot expands from the force of it spinning at freeway speeds... it's rubber after all.

also read the member's gallery rules or I'll just delete your new thread instead of merging them.

omg! i'm having that same problem, i would advise you lift it maybe a couple of MM to be on the safe side, i had asked the question if there was a rebuild kit, something i could do to remove the smaller clamp, move the boot more towards the tire and then re-clamp the boot.

Finally "rolled my fenders". Didnt do the best job but considering no one in colo would roll my fenders i have to go with a baseball bat and a pair of pliers. Also lowered my car as low as i could for now. the front coils gave me a very hard time and are maxed out for now. tell me what you think.



Cant go any lower, tried to adjust the spring collar but couldnt break the torque on it.
