question. i have a set of te37s 19's 9.5/10.5 +22. If i buy 20mm spacers all around will it make a big diff? im trying to achieve that stretched aggressive look. Will i also need to purchase longer lug nuts?
What brand tire are you running? I need that stretch in the rear
Federal SS595 all around. My best friend is running the 595EVO this year and the tread pattern looks awesome. VERY R888 esq.

You have a few options at that point. If the TE37's have the recessions on the hub of the wheel the 5mm of extra OE stud may tuck in there. Otherwise you'll need to shave them. 25mm spacers completely cover OE studs. If you are unsure of the fitment, go to www.willtheyfit.com and play around with the measurements. Go outside, measure your current set up for space and go from there.
What are some of you guys on for coilovers and what are your spring rates? I want to switch my coilovers to something stiffer to stop me from bottoming out on small bumps and rubbing. Any help would be great
Also, looking for advice from some of you guys. Currently running 19x11 +16 with 255/35/19 Accelera Phi's in the front. The tire is rubbing a bit at the top of the sidewall even after raising it (another .25" higher than this picture). Also, after my initial test drive, I found what I believed to be a mark on the tread from hitting the top of the fender liner. Is this possible at this ride height or was I just seeing things.
How would you handle this? Step to a 245/35? Pull the fender slightly? Open to advice. Naturally I want to lower the front down significantly, but not at the cost of bacon fenders

Properly adjust your coilovers to the point your bumpstops are engaged before your tire touches
Car is amazing Bruh !
There is a 1993 black ext, 60K miles, original unmolested, beige leather , manual, 1 owner garage kept, 5 minutes from me for sale. Car is mint in & out, I want it so bad .
terrasmak - I'd like to not have to raise the front end of the car any more. So in regards to adjusting the coilovers, I'm not sure what I could do. I have Bilstein PSS B14 coilovers.

Follow up to my question as well: Would it make more sense to drop down to a 30 profile instead?

I would try the 245/35 before going to a 30 profile tire.. nothing good comes from a 30 sidewall stretched. The 245 will give you the stretch you need to lower it to where the tire will evenly pull the fender over time. As far as lowering the front end, it is all about what spring rate you have and how much adjustment you have in the dampening.

Pulling the front fender is simple, I actually do it by hand.
If the fender linter screw removed or cut down. Removed would be prefured for a smaller ride.
PSS 14 , not adjustable for body length. Here is a simple solution , taken them apart, take a trip to the hardware store , use rubber or plastic washers to make the bump stock engage faster. I would go 1/8 inch at a time for the desired results.
Stepping up the spring rate for being that low is always a smart idea too. It wont fix the issue but will help. Only way to properly fix the issue is the shim the stop.
Last, 245/35-19 may be a good idea. Little more stretch and a hair shorter.
