    looks good. what is the suspension setup on the car, and how much neg. camber are you thinking to make the fitment work?

    edit: larkin- im at 3* neg in the front and 4.5* neg in the rear with my wheels- granted they're nothing extreme, but the ride is absolutely acceptable to me.

      When i had my rotas they said i had -4 camber f+r and it rode fine .. and that was barely adjusting my camber kits.. on my bbs i had neg camber as much as skunk 2 pro plus series would go which they say is -5 (looked way more like the red hatch above) and that rode like shit.. so im not sure to the actual degree but that much cambers no fun

          well idk about the ride it will have but i dont think im gonna need that much neg. camber seeing as im pulling the fender-wells out as much as i can without looking tacky like a body kit. the wheels are still gonna be hanging way out but tire should tuck in nicely. something like this haha.http://flushstance.ccwheel.com/wp-co...4_jetta_03.jpg granted its a mk4 vw but you know how it has the flat part on the well and see how its pulled out to fit more tire yeah thats what im going for. if i have to i will add some camber but its very unwanted. and the tires should look something like this.http://www.tyrestretch.com/8_195_40_R16/

                      i don't know why jamie got so much publicity with that car. it was a POS with a shitty bag setup, half-assed raised strut towers, and purple RS's. nothing special. i believe he crashed it too. that pic was taken at 'the dock' in stratford. car and owner are local. jamie's cool, i just dont understand why people jock that rabbit so hard.
