    Happy to finally find a video with 15 f and 20 r with hr springs. After maintance is done il be getting both along with the rs style grills up front for sure. Still no clue what to do for the defuser in the rear.

      Ahahha glad you did too! Content is rare for these as people usually don’t mod them much since they are pretty costly! I have another vid for a diffuser but that was temporary, there are a couple cool diffusers for these but expensive af ahah

    I'm looking into coilovers and spacers but I'm scared the handling of the car might suffer did you feel any diffence in hard turns? Any understeering or over steering? Good video bro

    • @lacast_lifestyle
      @lacast_lifestyle  3 роки тому

      The car handles so much better its ridiculous! I prefer it this way, you don’t really notice the drive comfortability changing but you get a much more agile car. 100% recommend it! And thanks bro appreciate it !

    Thanks for the video. I have 20" with 255/35 tire size. I'm thinking it might be too low for my setup. Thoughts?

    • @lacast_lifestyle
      @lacast_lifestyle  3 роки тому

      Mmh 20” you mean the ride height or are you more worried about rubbing? I had no rubbing at all but if you fit them well depending on the offset of your wheels it should be fine!

      Thanks a lot my g! The previous owner got them and had no idea of the specs! They are 19” from Aodhan DS07 which are now called AFF7! My guess is +35 offset 🤟🏾

      Its an A5 front lip from ebay ! About like 120/140$ I think! And the side skirts are also ebay ! 78.7” is the perfect measurement for it, they were about 60$. I went the cheap route because for my daily I do not need 500$ carbon fiber side splitters 😂

      19x8.5 +35 I believe. The previous owner got them on but since it didn’t sit flush I am guessing these are 8.5 but they could be 9.5! I thought it was ridiculous that he didn’t know his wheels specs😂 got 15mm spacer in the front, 20mm in the back!
