I can't say on the specs....I just copied it from the thread he put these up in. It says no spacers though. The thread is also from 08 if that makes a difference.

Hmm, not sure if they've changed them since 08.. Oh well, I'm not too concerned with fronts, it's those rears that are jaw dropping!

I wonder if those 18" Meisters will clear Brembos?

I think I may not have been quite to a full stop yet though...the front is usually a hair higher and the rear a tad lower...

I should mention that my car has VERY little body roll...the pic where I am turning above is probably a 1.2g ish turn....
nice, what suspension mods?

i wonder how your fenders will look, and how low you'll be able to go if you go for those specs..

im with toby on this one everytime I click on this thread all I see is sunked in wheels with wide tires and stock height. I want to see wheels with atleast +5 and down offsets with some meat tires. Im currently trying to go -1 -2 with 265/35/18 front and 295/35/19 rears. Lets get some real agressive wheels with meaty tires on here!

Ok... What's the camber on those setups going to be like? I fail to see the point of a fat tire with crazy camber, where you're only getting the contact patch of a 235 while running a 295+ tire. Call me crazy but isnt traction and grip the whole point of a wider tire? You guys seem far to caught up in the crazy camber and stretch fad.

That being said, I do love the look of it sometimes too.. I just prefer more tire on the road then going for a look.

well I decided to go with a 305 instead but camber should be around 1.5 to 2 degress with isnt much,trust me its not that streched,the streched tire thing looks cool sometimes, but I like my tires like i like my women, fat and aggressive

example: 305/30 its 19inch with 1.5 camber...but you get the idea
