    for the rear wheels... yikes. you could either run crazy negative camber in the rear, massively flare out the rear arches... or get new wheels.

    Yea Im not too fond of having to run camber in the rear. Im more looking into what I can do to the fenders. Im probably just going to roll the crap out of them and if that doesn't work I'll have to get some bodywork done, i.e. fender flares.

    As far as your rear wheels, what are the offsets? I'm pretty sure I've read of others fitting 9.5 in the rear, lowered, without issues. Hopefully someone will chime in.
    This is what I'm working with: http://www.modbargains.com/velocity-...tyle-wheel.htm

    Not sure what the offset is because they were with the car when I got them.

    So, I pulled the DISA about 30 mins ago to check it out..Ive been getting a weird clicking from the region of the car.

    Naturally, I expected the DISA to be in shambles; however, the DISA looked to be perfectly fine. I cleaned it and reinstalled it. The noise is still there.

    My question is: does the DISA valve ever fail in a way other than the typical flap breaking scenario?

    Sounds like it can fail in other ways, although I haven't really heard about it...

    Judging by the pic earlier in the thread, it looks like you have ET35 wheels. They stick out a lot, and is a somewhat aggressive offset for lowered cars. My wheels are ET35 as well and they are almost right on the fender. I had to modify the rear plastic in the wheel well so it wouldn't rub anymore, and my fenders were already rolled (by you!), so the plastic was the source of my rub. If I was a fraction of an inch lower, I'd rub in a way that can't be remedied, and if the wheels were any lower offset, I'd rub on the fender lip again even though it's rolled. It's that tight.

    You may not have to lower it that much. If you don't want to get new wheels, then I'd say just keep lowering it until you find that point where it's as low as it goes without rubbing. It'll still look good even if it's not as low as you want it. If you want a tuck, then you're either going to have to pull your fenders, run stretched tires (I highly advise against this both from a looks perspective and from a safety perspective), or run different wheels. It looks to me like the tires are already stretched slightly.

    Well, mine might have failed at the lever or something. It was just weird because the noise is coming from where the DISA is at but the DISA looked fine. Im going to pull it again tonight and have another look.

    Damn, I was looking at them last night and Its gonna be tight. I need to roll the crap out of them. I'll probably end up getting different wheels in the spring and using these as a winter setup.

    These are what I'm looking at. I just dont know a lot about offset and what offset would give be the best tuck wwhen I slam sheila.

    I though you said flapper was very loose in your text to me.
