He's lowered with the new springs/struts so combined with 5mm or so of slotting (I think the limit is 10mm because then the nose of the strut top hits the car body), I bet he can get to -2.5 which seems to be good (for me anyway

) with 200 TW tires and even Nitto NT-01 and the like.

To get to -3 or more, the GT 3 arms would let you get there.

I'm running -2.5 and liking it pretty good (GT3 LCA, top mounts offset 10mm, stock ride height) and I could probably go to -3 with my current config, and if I added a few shims I could probably get -3.5.

Edit: with all that said, note that I do have the GT3 LCA and I bought them after shredding yet another set of front tires... If there is just 1 mod to do, that is it

Combined with other mods like lowering, they could be put off for a while I bet... They are $$$. They do come up used from time to time and some good deals to be had. The new SPC ones for $700 a pair seem like they might be pretty good. If I could travel back in time I woulld keep an eye out for a set of the Elephant LCA, they are sweet
