I like! just curious, how would you feel if you had put the 9.5's up front? i see touge only sells one offset for each on their site. Thanks in advance! also, directly head on, front/rear of either side of the car would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance!

He probably wouldn't have been able to do 9.5" in front on stock suspension.

Car looks great man. Cant wait til u get your stance dialed in. Even at stock height it still looks great.

Great choices being made. Ill be sure to keep an eye out for ur future updates.

Im on sportline springs with 18x9.5 e38 255/35 square and they fit just fine :)

Exactly, you are on springs. That's why i said "stock suspension". Also you are +38 and these are +45, so yeah.

Thanks!

Having 9.5 at the front definitely would have looked pretty damn good, but I didn't want to put 255s at the front, and also wouldn't want that wide a wheel on 225s. Looks-wise though, hands down it would have been better.

I've uploaded some more pics, didn't get to detail the car this weekend like I wanted so I haven't got all the angles down yet. I'll update hopefully this weekend again.

Also, if you want to order those wheels from Touge, just call or email the shop, Chris will likely be the one to answer, and he'll help you out.

the springs make the fitment worse than the stock ones do? They use the same strut but lower the fender closer to the tire, creating less fit.

9.5" e 38 is almost identical to the distance to the perch of 9" e 45.

Fair enough, my mistake.

Merged @harkbrz's topic = same wheels w/ same specs

jruss 01-22-2015 02:18 PM

Hey guys, I have the same wheels and planning to put them to eibach sportline lowering springs. If I get suitable tires, will these go on with no issues? No spacers etc... Just need some clarity

Thanks

Hey Guys,

Just got this set up couple days back. I will try and snap some more pics over the weekend and yes I'm on stock suspension at the moment. Let me know if there are any particular angles you guys want to see.

Got the Wheels from Chris @ Touge Tuning in Mississauga

Hey I was wondering what size tires you have on. I just bought the kojins but I dont want to buy tires that will rub against the inner wall.

This is on stock suspension and you haven't had any rubbing issues right?
