TE37 18x9.5 +12 offset...

Trust me, I spent a long time trying to get rid of it without having to resort to fender rolling but at the end of the day it was the only way to go

but the JIC car does have complete in tact rear fender lips, never even scratched

it looks like it's sticking out the fender to me.. and everyone is right.. your rear tire looks very stretched.. probably because if you got a wider tire, it would rub and you would need to roll your fenders because the rim doesn't exactly fit

fronts i left but i have 255 on the rear now which is a pretty decent choice for drift and no rubbing yet XD
pretty sure i would notice if i was though :

the wheels of my 240sx.
225/40 front and 255/40 rear do me well so why change?
just because theres more rubber doesnt always means its an optimum
setting per driver.
Hey man, your tires are so stretched that you have an OUTSIDE lip lol
That's great that you run a tiny tire and that you actually drive your car in racing events.. but I think what people are trying to tell you is that if you were to run a "normal" sized tire say a 275/40/18 you would rub... not everyone would prefer to run on a smaller tire like you do..
actually i don't think I've seen anyone else run on a tire as small as you do..
