[acpstunts]

OMG this is the wrong thread for this but..... Type X is a trim level, not a generation. There were pignose type X's as well. Also type S, R, and G. If Im not mistaken

Your talking about kouki aero, and yes there is a JDM chuki bumper BUT pre-KOUKI aero is axacly the same as USDM "AERO".
So the term chuki AERO, is simply a USDM chuki front bumper.

piggy = Zenki
shark = Chuki
"type X" = kouki

The only one of those that can even be called "Aero" is kouki WITH a lip.
Get your shit straight or GTFO.

AND the coupe would look better with coupe sides and valances.

WINNING!

the whole "yo that type x aero is mad tyte, son" banter is fucking irritating.

[Z33dori]

there is a reason that thread floating around is called the Kouki aero thread

hahaha my bad. im worried because if i have negative camber, my inner tires will wear out fast. so im thinking.... on the s13, if i go ahead and lower it with maybe a tien coilover, and get the 15x8 sports max and roll the fenders, it will be ok right? the tires wont rub and it will look somewhat slammed??? i see a lot of cars out there these days with negative camber and the car looks so badass but i think to myself... wonder how long those tires last.. haha

[rightcoastimports]

Your tires wear out faster if your toe is off more... Negative camber isnt thst bad. Its just the more negative the less tire is touching the ground. Sooo you have less traction.

[spooled240]

^ this is the truth, I went though about an 1/8 inch of tread in a few hours when my toe was way out in the rear so I got an alignment and i was WINNING!

[Z33dori]

camber = win

[dksil80]

so..... negative camber and normal toe all good??? i wont have to waste money on tires within 5000 miles?

[95KA-Turbo]

-2.5 or -3 camber will not kill your tires super fast if you have good toe. If you have much more then -3 though, your tires will show more significant wear. Certainly nothing keeping an eye on your tires and getting them flipped wont take care of.

[dksil80]

oh wow. im learning new things. THUMBS UP!!!! gah.. i want a slammed sil80. gonna keep my is300 as daily and saving up for s13 hatch shell. cant wait

[95KA-Turbo]

I mean, don't expect your tires to last years or anything, but you don't have to worry about needing new tires every 2-3 months as long as you have your toe close to 0 and you pay attention to the wear, so you can flip them to get the most out of them.

A roller from a charity event two weeks ago:



17X10 -18 235/40
17X11 -1 245/40

[dksil80]

cuz i was reading throughout this thread that you would have to have some camber when the car is lowered A LOT. and i was getting worried about tire wear. it makes sense to me now haha.. yup i dont expect them to last a whole year. i really like how the sportsmax 002 looks and want the 15x8.

[Z33dori]

ya i roll -3 all around

was doing good but now my alignment is wack.....but the tires are still decent toe is a killer tho

[dksil80]

can i ask you about pulled fenders?? i know what rolled fenders are LOL and stretched tires? i read it all the time but dont quite understand.....

[spooled240]

I'm at -2.5 all around, my tires should last me at least a year...or at least the fronts


i love this pic

[dksil80]

Its worth the time. Saves you from asking a bunch of already covered questions.

Start from page 1 and literally take notes of the setups you like. Also note the date and see how much more aggressive its gotten through the years.... From kinda flush to hellaflush..... Do not ask how to explain offsets and how they work in this thread... Google it or search else where.
