Im running 30 series - 265/30/19 and 275/30/19 - much better fit in my opinion. Plus Im lowered like 2-3" Id say... Here is some pics (these are prior to adding some neg camber to the front though which helped too with the 3mm spacers in front)

yah dont know what im gonna do. i only plan to drop about an inch. if offsett-z33 is lowered that much i think i should be ok with only a 1" drop. and camber? more pics to come. thanks for comments
its 50-50 the ppl in real life are saying it wont work. even some on here say it wont work without pulled fenders. then others say just add camber and strech tires but like theres only so much camber i can add for a dd untill its rediculus. gonna wait and see.

I think it looks pretty good even at stock height, but I'm not as picky as others on this forum. From a visual stand point, some negative camber and a little drop will help you out. You will have worse wear on your tires with the extra camber though. These offsets are probably better suited for cars that aren't daily drivers, but I don't think it is bad enough to where you need to sell them and get something different.

This might be a good way to sandblast the car’s side and rear quarter panels before repainting.

damn...those new pictures really show how silly those massive offset wheels lookat stock height. As everyone has said, slam and tuck it and the car will look many times better.

I love the wheels, but not the offset or rear tire set-up. I agree with some on here and pull some more negative camber and drop it. You'll wear some tire thread and pretty soon you can stretch 'em with a smaller width.
