Staggered wheel fitment is when you have two different wheel widths and offsets on each axle. For example, for my winter wheels I run Enkei RP01's in 17x8 +17 E.T. (15mm spacer) rear and 17x7.5 +23 E.T. (15mm spacer) front. Props to the VW/Audi guys, who have great taste in wheel offsets. I stay fucking amazed at how an unknowing individual can ruin a car's look with shitty wheel fitment. Basically, the Euro car guys have been up on fitment ever since every since and Japanese car guys (in the U.S.) with RWD cars followed suit. In Japan, RWD cars have traditionally sported low offset wheels. I mean crazy low offsets, like -20 E.T.
How about that evolution, huh? I find it amazing that the world went from fucking awesome dinosaurs going 'RAWR!' to stupid feathery birds going 'chirp'.......

I'd get the Rx8 just so I can mess with the magical spinning dorito motor.
Thank you for providing us with the direct-port nitrous... uh... injection, four-core intercoolers, an' ball-bearing turbos, and... um... titanium valve springs..
slamming a VW that your mom bought you is fucking gay.
uMad?

You say it as if the Evo is some type of Hyundai Sonatra
It's all good mate, I don't hate on the car, lord knows I've owned and driven enough turbo japs to have an opinion though. I don't liken it to a Sonata, but for me, I find it difficult to justify spending the equivalent of quite a few seasons of decent category racing in a modified Sonata, to build a car that wont classify or qualify for pretty much any recognised w2w racing. Sure it's probably a TA car? Didn't get through the whole thing.
Power to him, but I'd rather spend the money differently.

I don't know what they use the car for, most likely drag since its running around 2k hp.
BUT they dont really build cars for times, more along the lines of HP.
BUT, this wasnt about the car. It's about the Technology, and development involved in that motor, F1 spec compressors, fully CNC'd block, c'mon thats amazing.

IDK what the white wall thing with red wheels is all about on that Golf, but that Porsche is tizighhhhhtttttt. One of my homies has been in Japan since December for the holidays and new year and told me he saw some sick Porsches modified to high hell at this one particular shop. I'll see if I can find the pics. Also, Supermade Instant Gentleman aero on the S13's = WIN.
