    It took some work but with the dtm flares and big tires I have no rub at all. Even at full lock to lock with the Z3 rack. Im interested how yours turn out.

    Im open to flares, just haven't seen any I really like and have a few bigger projects for this car that need to get done like the sc install and cage. I'll just have to see how it works out once I have the wheels and tires mounted up.

    Its dry lapping with full body roll that I think may cause issues. Not a huge deal since the k1s are my dry wheels anyway.

    I think the xxrs will poke to much for this:
    I think you'll need some flares. et0 is pretty pokey.

    Rears will probably rub if there not cambered. Fronts should be fine.

    Not crazy low, h&r race and bsports. Running 245/35 rear, 215/40 fronts. Fenders are already rolled flat and pulled around 1/4".

    Depending on how low you are and how wide your tires are, I had to do about a half inch pull all around.

    They look huge. Im interested to see if/how much additional fender pulling im going to need to for these wheels.

    R888's are generally wider than regular tires.

    These look awesome. I bought the gold set, their sitting at the wheel shop waiting for me to bring the tires up, but this weather is preventing me from bringing the e30 home from storage...
