They look great, I wish I could collect wheels, but I have long list of other needs.

Love the pics! Car looks amazing! Can you give a little info on the wheels/tires set up? Sizes and offsets please. Looking to do something similar but want to see if my current tires will fit on those wheels. Thanks!

Weird how the minty 964 tucked the fronts, and you have a lot of poke. Did Bryan flare his fenders?

I'm glad i'm not the only one who has been fixated on this exact point.

I figure the Rotiform car has some decent negative camber in the front, but the fitment looks vastly different on Maxxvr's car to the point it doesn't even seem like the same wheel.

Vandit, I went for a quick alignment and they couldnt adjust the camber negative upfront how I wanted. That issue will be sorted tomorrow, and I will be tucking fronts with -2 or more camber.

FWIW I maxed front camber at -1.8 while riding Bilstein HDs & H&R Turbo springs using only the adjustment range where the struts bolts to the wheel carrier (i.e. loosen those 2 bolts and push the top inward, pull the bottom outward).

I ran a 17x9 upfront before, with -1.8 degree front camber, and it was not even close to tucking. Need camber plates.

I may just spring for them now. Brian wasn't running camber plates with them he told me.

The top bolt on the coilover is slotted, you can get at least -3º out of it.

Looks good,

Like Vandit said, didn't realize they were the exact same wheels. Looking forward to seeing the set up with the new alignment. Also love that you still have the flag mirrors!
