    pretty happy with the outcome of some past shows
    - i was able to grab up 3rd at waterfest, which was kinda disappointing due to what won 1st and 2nd (judges suck at waterfest every year!!!)
    - then got 1st at dubs on the delaware placing over the dude that won 1st at waterfest
    - and also 1st at fall show n go as well as h2oi which i was very proud of

    What was the offsets on the NUEs if I may ask?

    I am looking at offsets for higher width wheels (9.5) so trying to figure out the front more or less.

    Thanks! Was the spacer just to clear strut? Do you think you could have run a higher offset if coils?

    I'm just trying to figure out my new setup and would like to run some decent dish.

    that was on coils, my car was never on bags
    the front i think was to clear the strut, thats y i used a 5 mm
    the rear i used a 20mm just to get the right stance
    didnt need to at all

    look at later pics from the CCWs this past summer

    Thanks for the info - What were the specs on the CCWs - all the same?

    Did you rub on hard cornering up front or were you ok with the 215s?

    on the rotiforms that was 225/40 all around

    the ccws were
    - 18x9.5 et13 215/40
    - 18x10.5 et10 235/40

    if you suspension is stiff enough you will be ok
    if rubbed it wasnt much, didnt make me want to raise it or change anything
