sounds good.. i know that i had the mid disk 18x10 0 offset up front and i needed a 25 mm spacer to clear the brembo which made me pull/pull/pull fenders...i think the lowest offset i can with the brembos up front with a mid-low disk is probably like a +15 (rpf1's) and with a high disk probably around low tens...but then i wont have a lip and that is unacceptable to me lol.
my next setup (oem brembos/pulled fenders) im looking at around
19x11 -10/20 ish or 19x12 0/-10 ish rear and the front 19x10 0/-15 mid disk or 19x10 +5/10 ish low disk or 19x11 +?????.....
need help please if anyone has any input..thanks! and i cant wait to see the 19x13's...its gonna be sick.

Well my wheel guy told me offsets drop 12mm per inch so I figure my specs where going to be 20x11 -14, 20x13 -18 but after he measured it he said offset were around negative 12-15 somewhere but I'll find out when they are done and post a picture of them too.

Overall im happy tho. pretty much just jack the car up, put an aluminum pipe in between, put a rolled up towel in between edge of your rims(lip) to use for leverage, and just slightly push down on the rolled up towel not the tires or rim. do it slow and be patient, i move inch by inch to make sure the pull is even and avoid wavyness(but i rushed so i would never know lol). oh yea dont forget to heat it up with a heat gun
Lito thanks bro

FIRST OFF: Holy 
Toby. Your car's stance is proper as hell. Very nice to see you back.
So I missed my alignment today because adjustments still need to be made. Unfortunately, that means no photo shoot for me sunday. Since I'll most likely have to wait next weekend for the shoot, I decided to snap a quick photo(s).
Here is a picture of the front after dropping it last night. I went TOO low. Will be raising about 1/4":
And here is a full shot.
I plan on going 1/4" lower in the rear and hopefully some more negative camber once I get her on the rack....

Threads the z is good as is right now. Honestly i would not raised the front at all, i would leave it as is, i would actually lowered the rear more and by doing so it would raise your fronts a bit than lower the fronts more 
edit: And if you take the fugly wiper off even better.

I thought the sound was coming from the plastic covers, but the noise seems too loud to be plastic(I could be wrong). I have SPC upper A-arms and I've heard that they may hit if your too low. If I find that my A-arms are hitting, I will dremel away and keep the current ride height. However, even if I get rid of the noise, I still have tire residue + paint chipping from, assumably, the lip hitting the fender.
