The BC Coilovers is your best bet if you want to go low, it comes with front camber plates which is very useful towards getting your fitment right. It is not stainless steel, but you can always use some kind of lubricant to protect it against the winter.

Looks Awesome, You said thats at -2deg of camber and it still has that much poke.

I dont understand how people keep asking if you had to add camber or a fender roll? Its obvious with any poked setup that that is a given

I thought they would be more concave than this.

Stance is a fad I will never understand. Performance/race car will never go out of style.

I guess some people don't care about going to the track and only care about fanboys saying "sick stance bro" lolol

Sick wheels nonetheless

The Show car vs racecar debate has been going on since people started modifying cars. Its nothing new, The only differences are the trends in the show car scene.

The wheels are pretty concave. It might just be the angles that are throwing you off. He has photos of these wheels on the 1st of second page before the install and you can see how deep they are.

The wheels are very concave, but the pictures dont do it justice. In regards to the racecar/stance/performance argument, Im still able to step on it and get very good traction. My car is FBO + stainless steel meth+ JB4 G5, so I did think about performance first, then went into cosmetics. I actually have a separate set of wheels that I use for fun as well and with the fender trim I'm able to fit wider tires in the rear for better traction as well.

Any chance you can do the SDC without the stretched look?

This is a forgestar f14 thread so it's safe to assume they're Forgestar F14's (they are). They look like the set you can buy on Mod bar gains (only size that they keep in stock)

His fronts are plastic as well. He said front clearance is great. He could run a more aggressive offset and he is planning on going lower.
