Ok. I just bought my stook two months ago and I'm new to this forum, so please excuse me if i do/write some bone head things. Now that the disclaimer is out of the way...

I was the lucky one that was able to score the BBS LM's sold by SaintS2k. Wow... I have to tell ya that the wheels are immaculate and "the Saint" himself was an honest man and a pleasure to meet. Thanks SaintS2k.

Anyhow here's a pic of the newly acquired wheels on my silverstone. I still have a long way to go, i.e. J's lip, side skirt, exhaust and other mods, but this will have to do for now. Hope you like it.

Hang tight for another post because one of my best friends has a Silver Boxster, flossed out really nice. Since we all know that the S2k will blow the doors off the Boxster, comparing the two on the track would be "bully-ing" him to say the least. So I'd like to take good pics of our two cars side by side for an esthetic pose down to see who really is the king of the roadsters... keep a look out for the S2K vs. Boxsta' Showdown!

Enjoy.

With those offsets do the LMs stick out on the rear?

Thanks for the compliment everyone.



Wantone... could you help me out with the reasoning behind the -2 camber. Is this necessary in order to get the tires not to rub or is this adjustment to help in the performance of the car.



I thought i might add... i dont have my car lowered yet. SaintS2k is thinking of selling me his H&R's. Since i dont plan to track my car i just want a sportier look (not slammed).



As for the picture i posted ealier... yes the car looks lowered already. That's because i'm an Art Director... I can make anything look how i want it to...haha
