Finally got around to getting the tires on the new wheels and finishing up the car for a little bit. I love the feel of the square setup so far. The steering feels a little heavier, but the car begs to be pushed through the turns. It definitely feels more balanced and predictable, which gives me more confidence while driving it. I only cruised around for a little bit to make sure I wasn't rubbing and that everything felt good. The front end will need some more camber dialed in for sure and maybe bring the back to 3 degrees.....we'll see. Anyways here are some pics for now of how the car's sitting.

Car looks amazing! Do you plan on adding black vinyl to the windshield frame to match with the CF hardtop?

Hey thanks, I've thought about it, but to be honest, I don't mind the look with the white windshield frame. If I do, it will be a little bit.

Nothing new at the moment, I'll be overseas for a few more months...don't have any real plans for the car other than maintenance and a detail when I get back. Throwing around the idea of an ASM CF hood and Mugen intake setup.
Thanks a lot! The front fenders are rolled flat and are slightly pulled as well. Right now I'm running 2 degrees of camber up front with 0 toe. I plan on increasing the front end to around 2.6 degrees for better clearance and to help utilize the square setup to a fuller potential. The 9+35s will be a little more difficult to fit with 255s, I feel that I am pushing the limit with 9+40 at the moment. It can be done but depends on how you drive the car and what you want out of it. I have about an inch gap on all four wheels which helps out a lot and I feel the car responds well at the current height which is recommended for my coilovers. Also, it depends on what tires you want to run as some manufacturers sizing are a bit wider than others. Hope this helps out.
