hubba hubba! How far did you have to pull your fenders to get these to fit without rubbing abouts? LOVE the 18" TEs, love love love 'EM.

They actually didn't have to be pulled much at all - most of the clearance was achieved by the fender roll. They really can't be rolled my further without cracking the paint, but with the coilovers and camber/toe adjustment out back, I haven't had any rubbing issues.

Thanks for the comments!

can't tell if its very aggressive with those angles...


The front don't seem aggressive. But the term aggressive seems to be changing with every post and thread lately...

How much camber are you running front and rear?

Awesome. Your setup, with those fat R888s, is tops. Repeat, tops.

What do you run for a daily setup (this is your track setup, no?).

phreaktor, looks good. I think the front could use a 15-20mm spacer to balance the rear's aggressiveness.

Thanks for the compliment

My daily setup is Volk TE Progressives (19x9.5 +22 and 19x10.5 +22) with 275/35/19 in the front and 285/35/19 in the back. I have a few pics somewhere, but I don't think that qualifies as "aggressive"!

By most people's standards I think your DD setup is also quite aggressive. A 275 out front fits the bill in my book. And for NA street driving I think a 285 out back is plenty. Any pics?
