Spunky thanks for the constructive criticism but I dont give too 2 shits what you think. I didnt build my car for you or anyone else on this board. I will continue to push the boundaries of what s2ks can fit with or without my f@#ked up fenders. So you have fun building your "safely" fitted duece, while I keep changing the game. God bless.
I'm not saying that I don't like your build. I like the direction your build has gone. The stance is insane and you have it dialed in perfect. The only thing that breaks my heart as an S2K enthusiast is constantly seeing these cars with mangled fenders. I've been doing fenders on these cars for about 5 years and its definitely possible to 'fit' an s2k really well without doing that. I run an aggressive setup on my car as well. Your old setup was really nice and I run 17x10+38 all around on my stock body with a very low ride height as well and no rubbing. Also, the FTW attitude is childish.
Here is a vid of my stance to show you that I'm not running "safely fitted"

and here is my Evo X as well with 18x10.5 +15 and 265s

These are examples of properly fitted
Take care

spunky,
Thank you for the kind words. I have never thought of myself as one to follow anyone. So with every set of wheels I acquire I try and push the boundaries of what s2ks can fit. I feel its better to discover your own fitment style instead of running the usual "safe" offset to have a cookie cutter fitted car that looks just like everyone elses car. Discovering the perfect size and offset on your own vehicle makes pulling the look of "flush" off just that much more satisfyng. But thats just me. And yes my fenders are TRASHED. BUT I DONT CARE. For the past couple of years I havent had the dough to throw my car in the body shop. With the amount of work I want done its quite hard to A) Find a shop who's up for the challenge and B) Get the money up to pay for it. Having a mortgage doesnt help either. But never fear my car will be entering the shop in a few weeks and I will FINALLY be getting my bodywork fixed.
As far as your cars, theyre f@#king dope. But we both know you couldve gone a bit more aggresive. But hey thats just me.Do work buddy!

I used to have a horrible buckle in my rear from excessive pulling, not gonna lie..I hated it, it bothered me so much. I had to take care of it immediately. Soon enough Ramons will be taking care of and there will be no issue. It all just takes time

never posted any pics of this... had a local shop hook me up with a full 3m matte white wrap. needless to say my car was a guinea pig and I ended up ripping it off after a few weeks.
