You need to just read and read and read and read and read. Sooner or later you'll have that 'I get it!' moment and you'll begin to figure out how to tailor your setup to your tastes. In order to look like half of the cars you see in this thread you better be ready to smash ****, break ****, and bend ****. Comes with the territory. And my advice to you, always keep your eyes on the road and don't run **** over. Good luck young padawan.
your right ... i should read more about it. I just thought it would be a good idea to get someones input this being my first time doing a stretch tire setup. And yeah i do have some guidlines but i just wanted to be descriptive of what i want so someone could guide me through it. I am kinda learning as i go. Sorry if i pushed your buttons

I dont mind rolling my fenders but do not want to pull them. Do i need spacers ? (havn't test fit them yet at work all day) I want to know the best thickness and width of tire i should run to protect the wheels from getting bent easily but i do want the stretched tire agressive look. I will be posting pics once i get them installed . Wont be getting suspension for about a month. And this isnt the right section but if anyone would like to volounteer info on what suspension they think i should run for around 1k.
thanks for everyones positive input ... I have ordered 20mm spacers for the front and 25mm spacers for the rear and i got a great deal on some megan spec rs coilovers (crossing my fingers) ... just would like a few more people to confirm the correct tire size and i dont mind running stretched tires or rolling my fenders at all.

235/35's and 245/45's this is what has been suggested ... can anyone running a similiar setup with just rolled fenders give me some input .. or someone with more experience than me agree or disagree with the tire size suggested ... i trust the recomendation but i just don't wanna order the wrong size .

btw thanks in advance
