    Will be putting 225/45s on them. Should be mounted today, so will have a chance to test fit.

      Rubbing in the rear a bit. Gonna need a bit of a roll. And need to add a bit of negative camber to the drivers side front. Running 5mm spacers with my 5100 AST coilovers.

        Yea, added 5 mm spacers front and rear today myself. Cleared the front struts I've already destroyed the sidewalls of rear tires. Sucks... I got the rear fenders rolled but only in the middle I need to cut the sides and then re-roll I should be able to pull them out afterwords. I think I'm going to order a set of Megans.

          ^ You're on the right track. It's mostly the suspension that's limiting you right now, with a good rear spring rate and linear springs you can go much lower and not rub.

            Wheels are on, fenders rolled, camber adjusted. Still need to set the toe.





            Want to drop the front about a 1/2" yet, I think. Then, it should be good.

                  The pictures didn't do the 228's any justice, those look really good on the car. What suspension do you have?
