1 Inch drop

Back poking out about 1/2 - 1 inch didnt really measure it

+47 in the front is pretty flush. I think +38 will poke out like the rear

Riding on 18s I notice the car seems a bit more sluggish during take off. I was worried about understeer with the staggered fitment but the handling does not seem to have been affected much other than having way more grip. I dont notice any understeer but this is just my daily driver and I'm not a track nut/expert

Hope this helps anyone trying to decide on offsets.

Looking at a set of these wheels, and curious about the statement that coil overs are needed... I am guessing at the rear, yet a lot of other members have installed similar or less poke offsets with only lowering springs. Is this something due to the design of the wheels vs other manufacturers?

looking at 18x8.5 +38 and 18x9.5 +38 225/40 fr, 255/35 rr on probably eibach pro kit springs.

I went with 18x8.5 +38 and 18x9.5 +38 with 225/40 & 245/35 and I'm only doing springs (eibach sportlines). You shouldn't need coil-overs, at least I hope not, I haven't test fitted anything yet since it's the middle of winter here.

In my case I need to know... the car is being delivered without tires.. I have to supply my own rims and rubber to be able to pickup the car (no i don't have to install em myself) I'd hate to drop them off at dealer for install after i've paid a fortune only to get a call 2 days later saying they don't fit...

everyone running these rims with coil-overs is way lower than any spring will get you so there shouldn't be any issues with fender clearance.

the only thing i could possibly see being a problem is the diameter of the stock spring/strut setup being appreciably larger than a coil-over setup.

however other members are running the same setup on stock springs/struts, so i cant really see where you'd run into issues.
