I have the aggressive offset +17 and 18+ and the 285/35 tires in the rear. How much did you cut. When I mean hard corners I mean going 50 around a 30 mph turn, which the car could handle originally. Thanks

I had them cut about 50% only on the top portion of the wheel well. If you cut them you will not rub period. I understand what you mean about the cornering. I have zero rubbing issues and I turn corners on two wheels from time to time....

Hey guys I just got my GT-S' +17 +18 and was wondering how low you can lower you car with them while running 255's 275's. Rollering fenders is to be expected unless rutting them half way works out good.

Damn sen_jen...after seeing your setup, I'm now confused on what color GT-S I should get I'm torn between getting the diamond black or the mercurys silver on my SS. The diamond blacks are just mean looking & makes the car look really sporty yet I love the classic look the mercury silver gives the car.

i feel you. i was going to get the dblacks, but then i noticed it doesn't show the luster of the labias. they look smaller with the black centers because of the way the rim is designed. mercury silver on ss still has good contrast.

Doesn't fit right on my ride bro. Tried one already. I'm working with Rick to find the right offset for my setup. I posted a pic of how it looked on the previous page.
