20x9 +32 Front
20x10.5 +25 Rear

245-35-20 Michelin Pilot SuperSport
285-30-20 Michelin Pilot SuperSport

This fitment only works well for stock height. If you are lowered, you'll need to go with lower offsets.

Yes I agree. I will be staying stock height as well... do you have any more angles of the fronts? On the rear i am thinking about going with +15... but 19's.. It looks like there is 10mm more room to push them out even at stock height, what do you think? I know its different seeing the car in real life opposed to a pic.

if you used RE11s then the tires will be more square and look better.

but you wanted to go with pss, so that's your call im just not a fan of rounded sidewalls.

Yes I understand.. Cooltoys rears look like they could come out a bit more dont you think? The pilots look like they are right in the middle of having rounded side walls and squared is that right?

yep, if you're going to run pss or dw you could do up to ET15 10.5" 285/35/19.

but it's better to be conservative vs aggressive on stock ride, so cooltoy's setup is in my book. it's a matter of choice of tire used. i just happen to not like sidewalls that appear rounded/stretched too much. thus i skipped the pss.

yeah i liked how your weds look so that would be the way to go in my book with the dw.. I agree it shouldn't be any thing under+15 and +35 at stock height. And i also agree the tire make a big difference.

i was just making an observation that all. I like the look of rounded or squared sidewalls. I just noticed that the pss are right in the middle of re-11 and dw in regards to the side wall look...

it's a sporty look with the ET15 in the back with the DW.

the RE11s' will make the rear look real aggressive, which will be borderline fail for me, but for most folks it will get a dual
