hatchboi - I gained a TON of clearance changing to that 255.30 in the rear. I'd suggest you ditch your 245.35s in favor of those. You'll be surprised how much room you will gain. Plus, its almost an identical match to a 225.35 in front when you look at the overall diameter.
35 series in the rear for 20s with offsets like ours aint gonna cut it. I'm tellin ya.
I'll have my wheels finally on tomorrow night.

what kind of camber arm are you on hatchboi? I might need to run camber arm for the 20s if my pull/flare isnt enough with my fata$$ tires. Does any know which camber arm give the most adjustable range for negative camber or its all the same?

I'm always following this thread, even though I don't post in it much. I can't wait till I'll be making my own contribution here in a few weeks!! I ordered my wheels a few months back and should be getting them shortly
Here's what I'm getting
Work VS-XX in gold
19x9.5 +15, 19x11 +17
Maybe not as aggressive as some of you guys in this thread, but I can't wait to put them on!!

damn, he should have molded his lip to his bumper since he already got the full paint job...... I dont get why he didnt, that's the first thing most people would do....
I love that color, looks like Lexus Starfire Pearl

I'm glad he didn't mold it.....car looks sick. It's actually Glacier Frost Mica, but sometimes it's hard to see that color without good pix, or light. I see starfire pearl everyday. Great execution on the whole build. Good.....job!!

Man my camber is all ****ed up lol. Toe too. Car feels like its wiggling in the rear when I drove it cause one rim is toe'd out and the other is toe'd in. I gotta get an alignment after I get the ride height where I need it.
Stayed up till 4:30am last night messing with the car trying different heights and camber settings. Called it quits since I had to wake up at 7:30am for work. Will try and work on it more tonight.
Need to go like 1/2" lower in the rear at least.

tire choice help
ok, so i missed out on the other set of wheels i was wanting.
so, instead i got a set of 19" volk gt-v with 10.5 +4 offset,front and back. I'm planing on running a 15mm spacers in the rear.
pic of the wheels
so, my question is what tire size is going to work best?
i'm at -2 camber rear and around -2.5 front. rears will be rolled
heres a pic with old rims, to show ride height
