Wide-butt classic
 

I am gradually swapping my track to what came with the driveline (V9 Spec C)

so for anyone curious what a GC with 05 STI track (widest rear track, wider than previous MY) looks like - here it is!

This is 05 STI aluminium lateral links, which are 42cms center of bolt to center of bolt, ~2cms longer each side than GC, ~1cm longer than normal GD
Wheels are V7 17x7.5 +53
Tires are Potenza RE070 225/45/17 (however in fact, the tire is 235)

no rear camber yet, no rear sway
sourcing STI front control arms :)

I thought it was illegal for your tyre and wheel to protrude wider than the body of your car :confused:

any shots from further away on the 3/4 angle?

a smidge of rear camber will tuck the tops in enough to be legal?

Looks like u need a 22B body kit now!!!!:norty:

Indeed I do :(

I am running Hotbits rally suspension (right now it's at the losest setting) and those things are beefy, so I need to redrill and move inwards the knuckle mouting holes, and then I should be able to achieve some camber without rubbing on the perch

You might wanna think about mud flaps to keep you paint job safe from stone chips with the wider track, other wise your cars looking good, keep up the good work.

cant you just add some camber bolts>?

Oh those crazy Russians :D Where did the red beasty go?

The red wagon is still going to run circles around you at the track. ;)

No Way! Fender flares!! :p
