That's my biggest turn off about the plastidip. I'm prob gonna peel it off before I put the car away this winter. Does a great job protecting the wheels though IMO.

Great suggestions. Just way outta my budget. Closing on my first home next month, so I doubt I'll be able to afford anything more than a set of KW v3's or koni/spring combo at this point. Don't think I need much more than that, I'm just out for the odd track day and daily summer driving at the moment.

Got a question about tires for you guys. Car is lowered on gf210 springs and I'm getting ready to buy tires for my new wheels, specs are 19x9.5/11 +12/15 and I was looking at running the 255/35 and 285/35 setup with the rear fenders rolled. Will I have any issues or rubbing with this setup or should I just stick to the 245/35 275/35 with the rears rolled?

The 245/275 combo will look fairly stretched on your wheels. I would go 295 or bigger in the back, you may have to run a little neg. camber.

Since your posting in this thread, 275/30-19 front and 295/30-19 rears. Talk about little 245's and 255's can be done elsewhere.

You won't have problems if you run negative camber. If dropped with an alignment that's within factory specs, you will need to roll your fenders at the minimum.

Perfect wheel size would actually be about +25 offset with that width. Then you could easily run a 285/30 up front and 305/30 on the back.

Heck the 11" rear can nicely accommodate a 315/30 rear even. That's how I'd run that bish.
