Default My new Hyper Black Rota Tourque's

My new Hyper Black Rota Tourque's with Toyo T1r 255/40/18 & 275/40/18, 10mm spacers lowered on Tien s-techs. They rub a little so the fenders are going to be rolled. Wating on Blitz rear spoiler and a lip. ENJOY

Looks good. I never liked the T1R profiles until I saw them in the 40 series. most of the 35 series I see look too stretched.

Looks good bro. What are the wheel specs? 18x9 all the way around? +30 offsets?

Honestly I think the rears are sticking out too much, but thats just me... Also think wider rears would look better. But the wheels themselves match the car nicely.

Take off the spacers. You don't need them.

Ha! I thought I was going to get flamed for saying "take off the spacers," then I read all the comments. For the size tire you're running, the drop/camber and your wheel offsets, you don't need them. Spare your car fenders the trauma.

or slam the car down and your neg camber will allow clearance.. then roll it to be safe. You should be fine with -1.5 to -2.3 camber as long as toe isn't too out of spec. I have -1.8 all around and been riding for 18,500 miles and my tires are even all the way around..

They Rub when I hit bumps, they don't look like they would, but they do... I'm going to remove the spacers tomorrow, mostly because it's FREE. No one saw the red metal flakes in the paint?

Looks great! As others mentioned with the spacers removed you will have no rubbing issues and the wheels will still have a great look on the car.

Yeah. take off the spacers rather than rolling the fenders.
