I saw a thread on NASIOC like this. So I figured why not get one started on WRXATL? Post a pic and a description of your ride's wheel/suspension set-up! For Go, or for Show! Maybe something like: Rims: Brand, Size Tires: Brand, Size Springs/Struts: Brand, Current Adjustments etc. Maybe a little comment on how your vehicle handles and how satisfied you are with the setting.
The title "Show off" kinda deters me, I like functional to what I need at the moment and think is necessary. 18x8.5 Stock BBS 245/40/18 Goodyear F1 A/S UHP RCE Yellows (25mmF/22mmR perrin bars on stiffest) Fast enough to be enjoyable. Great feel on the daily drive.
if josh's wheels were 5x114 id probably be all over buying them.. autox has a pair on nasioc for sale right now im contemplating
I'll play even though it is nothing really special. Rims: XXR 527 Flat Black 18x8.75 Tires: Hankook Ventus V12 255/35 Springs/Struts: Currently stock with a kick ass alignment from AllPro. Contemplating the Bilstein/RCE combo currently. Lowers 15mm but more about function than stance.
Let me take you for a drive and let you decide, nice try Plan on washing/waxing it this weekend, I'll take a pic. Lowers only slightly, but enough for people to look at it and realize it is not stock. BTW like the edit to the first post
WRX3 by G-WRX, on Flickr ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Prodrive Springs on Stock Struts Cobb Rear Sway Bar (don't know the diameter) Rota Tarmac 1's Powdercoated Black 17x7.5 5x100 Bridgestone Potenza 245/45/17 Comments: The rear sway bar makes the car so much more responsive. I plan on putting a FSB on sometime soon. As far as the spring/strut combo. It's a nice ride. Not stiff, but still has performance benefits. I am replacing these with BC coilovers soon. As far as the Bridgestone Potenzas, amazing tires. They are quite expensive, but they ride extremely well. I would say that this is easily the best set of tires I've had.
Rims: Rota Torques 17/7.5/48 Tires: Yokohama Avid W4s 225/45/17 Springs/Struts: Epic Engineering Springs (1.25" measured drop), stock struts

18-7.5 +48-ish Volk TE37 225/40/18 Nitto something or another tein shitty techs on tokico d-specs. not too shabby of a ride even though the s-techs are way soft. i still need to install the bc coilovers i bought from brandon...last summer 18-8.5 +46 with a 3mm spacer 5zigen 520's 245-45-18 hancook s1 evo swift springs on stock struts way too soft of a spring rate, it scrubs the inner tire side on hard compressions. eventually if i ever get around to installing the bc's on the blue wagon, the fozzy will get the d-specs
