527's 18x8.75 +35 225/40 all over. I was a bit disappointed with the rears coz they dont poke out as much as the fronts, will try the +20 for rears next time.

Buying a pair of spacers is a bit more expensive than buying 2 of these wheels. Wheels = $150+, Spacers = $160+.

Spacer and extended studs. I drive the car hard on the backroads, and i really dont like the idea of spacers. And there is a saying "got to pay to play".

XXR 530 Matte Black, stock size (17x7) +35 offset, stock tires and TPMS swapped. It'll look better after I install my Eibach Pro Kit, but I'm satisfied with the style.

this seems like a good drop for springs! I quite like it. I was gonna get the Eibach sportlines but these look like they are lower.

I got a 2 finger gap from fender to tires. They only look low coz of the beefier tires. Im still waiting for my coilovers to drop the car a little bit more.

Thanks Joe! But no spacers for me, so +20 for rears will do.
