Good: love the looks, not too low & fills the wheel gap great. Firmer/flatter through corners. Good price.

Bad: can be a bit bumpy on rough surfaces, but is very bearable for daily driving.

235 fit tons better! Thank you for posting! I was debating on going 245/40/18 or 235/40/18 on my next tires and was leaning towards 235 and this has settled the contemplation! I went with a 225 and just has too much of a stretch to fill up my wheel wells!

Any issues with these springs? These are sitting in the shopping cart now cause they seem to be some of the best I have found. Need to adjust much for camber with these springs?

18 x 8.75 +35 on 235/40 on Eibach pros. If you DD your car and have crappy streets like we do in NY then it's a good option, no rubbing issue. I don't take my car to the track but I enjoy the driving experience taking some nice turns when I can.

Read the whole thread and having a hard time finding gold 527s on an asphalt.

Anyone seen it before?

Anyone with:

* XXR 527 17x8.25" +35 offset
* lowered on Eibach Sportlines 1.4" drop
* running 245/40/17

I would like to know if the fronts will rub with this tire profile?

Highly doubt you'll rub. I have 8.75" wide +35 offset on Sportlines which pokes out .25" (3.2mm) further than yours and I don't rub. My tires are 235/40. Based on my table a few posts up, you'll have 6mm poke in the front and 6.2mm tuck in the rear. OEM camber bolts will bring your fronts in about 6mm (nicely flush) while staying within alignment spec. Inner clearance will be good as people run 9" wide +42 offset wheels (much worse for inner clearance than your desired wheels) with no inner clearance issues. They're able to clear the stock strut perch by 1/4".
