You do know that spacers are made in different sizes, maybe order a 10mm to keep it from rubbing.

So how well are your fenders rolled?

Soon to be replaced by 295/30/18 with 17x10.5 ET15 due to lack of tire choices in 17s.

Those are old pictures. Car is pretty much Auto-X/HPDE only. I keep it registered and insured just for ease of driving to events. That scrape got taken out last year.

None of the mods done to this car were for looks. too bad I don't have any pictures with stock suspension as with the shorter tire the wheel gap on rear panel was equivalent of most SUVs

kept a 5mm spacers and no rubbing. so i guess changing the tire to 285 with a 10mm spacer will be perfect.

i didnt roll the fenders.

Just a question:
Would 305/30/19 fit in the rear?
Specs are 19x10.5 +12, no camber arms yet, lowered on HKS Hipermax LS+, fenders rolled.

Did a bit of research and found it may need -4.5 degrees of camber to fit, butnfortunately my country doesn't allow for that much camber so just wanting to find out

Sto k camber is around 1.25 so youll rub pretty bad without camber adjustment.

Those tires won't fit.

+22 is ok, +12 will be very tight. If you aren't lowered, it'll be fine.

Meant to say 18x10.5 et15. I've been running 17s for the longest time and it is my first time in like 5 years that I am buying 18s so it will take some time to adjust

295/30/18 will be hard to come by sans Hoosier. 285/35/18 RS3 is perfect, IMO.

Stepping up to R-comp after 5 years. I want something that I can still drive on to events. Will be either Michelin Pilot cup or Toyo 888

I have decided on Hankook V12's in 305/30-19 for my Concept One CSL5.5's (19x10.5 +20) rear and 275/30 for the fronts 19x9 +15. Should look pretty damn good... got a friend that rolls fenders lined up to roll the rears as soon as I can make it down to his shop.

Just waiting on payday
