I'm carrying over a convo from the tc strictly pics thread.

Basically i'm trying to get everything i need in prep for my new wheels next season. I'm trying to get as close to hellaflush as i can.

1) I am on HKS coils. Do i need to buy a camber kit or can i just adjust stock. I'm looking to go about -2.5 degrees, MAYBE 3.

2) What kind of lug nuts do i need to buy. Don't know the specific size or if the shape means anything.

I'm getting 18x8 et 40 wheels with 25mm adapters and gonna run 215/35R18. Anything else you can think of that can help me in setting up would be great. (I know i'm gonna be rolling my fenders too)

Thanks for the help guys!

Those spacers will get you flush in the back with a poke in the front. Recommend a 20mm in the front and 25mm in the rear.

B+G and Stance coils will get you lower than the HKS's.

All you will need is camber bolts for the front. The rear has enough adjustability as is.

As far as lug nuts go, that will depend on the seat of your new 18's but will more than likely will be a tapered seat. Size is 12x1.5

Thanks for the help. I got the deal of a lifetime on the HKS. I think they will go low enough for me.

Any suggestions on good / reasonably priced places to get the adapters?

Ichiba. Pricey but reliable. They come with extended studs and are hub centric to eliminate vibrations at highway speeds.

Those are just spacers correct? I need adapters. Wheels i'm getting are 5x114.3

Dude, that motorsport-tech site is amazing!!!!!
So freaking customizable and a one stop shop for even different widths.
$170 doesnt' seem rediculous either. And they are hub centric.

Woot!
