Cool, but is that a dc5 brembo conversion or some other brembos??? Only asking to confirm et needed on a ep3 to clear dc5

[Milano Trev]

Evo 9's fitted today, I'll get a picture of if with the evo 8 rims when I get chance

[R'ash]

Them evo 9s suit it well, Interested to see what the 8s look like or have they changed colour?

[Milano Trev]

Cheers dude, getting a little rubbing under load from carpet on rear arches hopefully a more aggressive geo will sort it out,
the 8's are still the same way I picked them up :-p

Wheels look fantastic man, Just got a set of 9's myself this week. Still deciding on a colour for them though lol.

You look like your around about as low as me, curious as to your tyre choice? I'm thinking 215/45 atm.

No worries not a problem.. My 9's came with hull on Dunlop slicks 235 so got rid right away as too wide and would provide way too much grip for my civic

I think Gus is running 235's but I dont know what kind of work needed to be done to get them to fit. I'll see if I can punt them on.

I understand where you are coming from with the above statement, I'm all for a set of Enkei's over Rota any day of the week though!

Enkei vs Rota is like Marilyn Monroe vs Katie Price.

Spikey wheels are a must!

Does anybody run -30mm with 45 profile tyres with evo wheels? Im really considering doing it as im only 15/20mm but wondered if people were running silly camber to fit them. I have rsr's on the back and they are quiet chunky.
