Akebono Brakes (plenty of clearance)
BC Racing Coilovers - Currently set too low now with the 18s, so ill be raising it .25 inches F and R
Alignment - All in spec except for the fronts (-2.0 deg of camber). These settings will change after I make changes to the ride height.

No spacer needed right? I needed a 20mm with the +45's. It's very tight in there.

Check out my album for more pics!

That much poke is why I ran the 18x9.5+35 f and 18x10.5 +12 rears. Fitment was great and I was able to run 285 tires on front with perfect fitment and 305 rears and didn't have to roll pr pull fenders. The +10 fitment kind of leaves you screwed for more tire.

Sorry for ask but to use those tires on front do i have to run spacers?

JWillis72 · 04-24-2015, 03:38 PM

No, it doesn't rub at all. My wheels are 18x10 +35 / 18x10 +25 at the suggestion on the guy I ordered them from. The fronts were perfect but he blew the back ones, I have 20mm spacers on them in the picture.

Thanks for the help dude! im searching now for the tires

JWillis72 · 04-24-2015, 05:46 PM

You will have to have the camber for them not to stick out at the top.

TBH I'm horrible with this fitment thing.
Looking at some Cosmis Racing wheel
Xt-006r
18×9.5 +10mm 5×114.3

18×11 +8mm 5×114.3

I want to run a beefy set up on tires.
Would I have to do any fender work to make this work with these specs?

chrischhorn · 04-27-2015, 06:01 AM

+10 on front is gonna require some fender rolling and possibly pulling even with stretched tires with a decent amount of camber. 18x9.5 +35 and I was able to run 285/35 tires on front with no rolling, or pulling the fenders. but I was running -2.8 camber for autocross.

I'm running 18x9.5 +10 front with 245 tires and I don't rub at all. Lowered on swift spec r springs.

Gtkiller, no rubbing at all

GuiLLoZ · 04-28-2015, 09:23 AM

my current setup is 245/40 front and 275/35 rear on the 18's. It would look a lot better with some springs but the handling and the acceleration are beyond better than stock...could have gone with the 285 but i didn't had time to buy them. Looking to buy cosmis wheels lol
