How is a smashed up yellow s13 inspiring?
Hardly a debate, the guy seemed genuinely confused. I thought forums are about giving people help and advice?
fcuk knows.......
I'm not a big ford fan but the RS500 is a legend, you cannot take away from it its Icon status and to suggest that its a chavvy car is like saying Kirsten Scott Thomas is a council estate slapper
Lighten up people, we're in danger of turning into Zilvia here.
This stopped becoming the 'inspirational' thread 536 pages ago, guy. It's the 'repost pictures from zilvia' thread now.
Plus i enjoy the rear fitment and like the colour, is that ok?
haha @ the tags of this thread. Some awsome pics in here!
I rarely get my pics from zilvia, so there.
Back on topic.

Its made by a company called Luxury Abstract, based in NYC. All the wheels they produce are 100% custom and hand built.

I take it you've never seen the Volvo in the World Touring Car Championship? or the current Vauxhall Vectra in the British Touring Car ChampionshipFunctional to handle crap, take note of these beautiful cars.

I would post a pic but they aren't S-Bodies but they do run a silly amount of camber and ARE race cars
Hahaha, yeah that Pirtek Vectra in the BTCC has some nuts camberI take it you've never seen the Volvo in the World Touring Car Championship? or the current Vauxhall Vectra in the British Touring Car Championship

You will easily get that under the rear arch's. I've got a slight flare on mine with a 255/35/18 tyre, wheel is an 18x10J ET15 so the same.dame you
lucky my rears are only 10J ET15... so I hope to get them tucked under stock arches with just a roll and not a lot camber and wearing a 225/40 R18 tyre... something tells me im gonna need a flare which is really not what im wanting
in the making
Yes they are
Yes,but thats not for grip either,the excesive camber is for a driver who prefers a loose rear end! the car behaves more like a rwd!I take it you've never seen the Volvo in the World Touring Car Championship? or the current Vauxhall Vectra in the British Touring Car Championship

You only need two tools in life - wd-40 and duct tape. If it doesn't move and should, use the wd-40. If it shouldn't move and does, use the duct tape.
And if you can't fix it with a hammer,you've got an electrical problem!
From what I understand it's also to get a bit more heat into the rears by running a smaller contact patch.
But on a RWD not everyone needs/wants perfect rear camber and ultimate grip. One of the most fun cars I've driven in the wet was my 7-series with ridiculous rear camber, it was tail happy at relatively low speeds so you could have some fun with it without requiring the commitment of an F1 car at Eau Rouge.
