                That is pretty tough looking :up: Maybe 215s would have been better?

                  Thanks! I wanted to go with 225/45's but there aren't many options unfortunately. I do love the grip of these RS3's though :D

                        I have rolled fenders and it rubs in the front on hard turns and in the rear during hard acceleration. I'm going to raise it up a 1/4 to 1/2" to see if it helps out, but we'll see.

                          I dont have coilovers so I have to make the most of what I have, but I like how it sits now



                          16x7 SSR Type C with 205/45/16. Suspension is IE3 with Bilsteins.Front springs have a slight trim. Rear has no spring pads in the back and the springs are untouched

                            Definitely a little large (tall). I would have gone with a 205/50/16 personally.
