New 15s now rear looks high ( to me )

[LeeRS]

Have just put some 2118s on with offset et43.
Have cooksport springs on and 5mm spacers on the rear but it looks high to me at the rear.
What spacers are you guts running with these to make it fill the arches mlre as at the moment im not happy with how it sits. At all.

 

[imprezaworks]

Front looks fine, and you have 5mm winging its way to you.

The rears I reckon 15mm

 

[Louis]

It does look slightly higher than mine, but not very much in it! What tyre profile are you running 195/50?

 

[LeeRS]

Yeah 195 50

 

[JB21]

Monster truck stance, needs more lows!

 

[imprezaworks]

Lee what type are the rear spacers?

 

[Stay Puft]

I think it's not the height that's the issue, the wheels look really deep into the arches!

 

[imprezaworks]

That. Depending on the spacers, double up on one of the rears, so 10mm and see how that looks.

 

[JB21]

Not sure how spacers are going to reduce that arch gap, surely it is what it is...you'll be needing 40mm springs to solve it IMO.

 

[Martin.]

I can understand why you are not happy with how that sits.

I think you're probably going to need coilovers to get it how you want. But you could try some bigger spacers to make it look wider. That may help.

 

[LeeRS]

It is on cooksports. So why not as low as others....

 

[LeeRS]

It is on cooksports so it isnt going to get any lower with springs. Sure they are the lowest you can get?

 

[imprezaworks]

Apex are lower but not as good.

 

[LeeRS]

f**k apex.

 

[JB21]

Mine on 40mm springs with 15" wheels...

 

[imprezaworks]

Phil those wheels were 38 offset?

 

[JB21]

Phil those wheels were 38 offset?

35 mate

 

[imprezaworks]

Lee if your not happy mate and Those wheels will sell easy peasy

 

[LeeRS]

What spacers will i need to match the offset to 35...

 

[imprezaworks]

What width are these wheels?

Going from 43 to 35 would make me assume 8mm spacers.

 

[Danf2681]

I think a 15mm on the rear should bring them out enough.

 

[LeeRS]

I have a set of 18mm pms spacers already. I think im going to go 18 front and rear

 

[imprezaworks]

Try them mate and see how it looks. Imo no more than 10 on the front.

@NorthloopCup may agree

 

[NorthloopCup]

Well it does look a tad high for saying it's on cooksports.
Spacers will numb the steering feel if you go too big, but it all depends on how you drive it I guess

I dont have rear seats in either, not sure what difference that makes.
The pics always look higher than when you look at it by eye, sounds strange but it does.
I have settled on the idea of 18mm on tje front and 10mm on the rear.
If still not happy then will decide what to do after that.

 

[imprezaworks]

Personally ten all round.

Yep I noticed this.

 

[Louis]

Yep I noticed this.

You never change your car, dont lie

 

[imprezaworks]

I’ve had an array of spacers my friend

Yeah no rear seats are where your issue lies mate.

 

[imprezaworks]

Have mentioned this to him. And if still not convinced

1. Eat more.
2. Carry four people at all times.

 

[LeeRS]

But no rear seats sounds so good.

I've got some 10mm Pure Motorsport rear hub axle spacers that I'm selling if interested?

 

[Stay Puft]

Rear seats can't way that much surely?

I think i'm 16mm front and 10mm rear but not 15s

 

[leedsboy]

I think i'm 16mm front and 10mm rear but not 15s 😧

And you're on cup turinis so your 'starting' offset will have been different

Have ordered me sone already now mate. Only £25 brand new so not much really.

Im going 18mm on the front and 10mm on the rear.

 

[LeeRS]

Fitted the 18mm pms spacers on the front, just waiting for delivery of the 10mm pms stub axle spacers to be delivered tomorrow.
It stands a lot better at the front now.
Am a bit happier with it, just hope the 10mm rears match how happy i am with the front.

 

[imprezaworks]

Looks awesome.

No idea why I didn’t get an alert :/

 

[hsustyle]

Mine is on Cooksports, 20mm hubcentric front & 15mm stub axle spacers on rhe back, - 1.5 camber front. 195/50/15

 

[imprezaworks]

Assume bottom pic isn’t on level ground?
