Washed car today, just in time for the rain. But I took a bunch of pictures and here are a couple, plus my link to my new cardomain page.





The wheels were rubbing really bad, but I had to take a bat to the fenders before my 4 hour trip tomorrow. It worked out really well. I have to say the Bridgestone Potenza SO3's are by far the best tires I've every had. They grip the road incredibly. It makes me want to start doing suspension mods so bad!!!!

My CARDOMAIN Page....

Very nice! Now that your fenders are rolled, go buy yourself a set of eibachs or H&R's, and then I'd say your car would be pretty well set as far as exterior appearance goes!

Let's hear it for dark 5-spoke rims!

Great looking wheels, but it looks like you didn't finishing rolling your fenders

well i just did it with a bat to give a bit of security. some of my VA Tech brethen want their fenders rolled also, so I believe to split up the cost we are all going to plan to do it one weekend. HOPEFULLY SOON!. I want to find out if I can lower it. As of right now. I don't think there is a chance to lower it in the back....

Well I dunno if this is of any help to you, but I have 225/40/18 45+ offset with Tanabe NF, and I'm not rubbing, but I rolled my fenders pretty far back (with a bat like you).
