any rubbing up front with the +43 offset? also with a squared wheel setup why did you go staggered tires?

you can go up to a 265/35/18 without rubbing on these, usually.

edit: assuming you're on coils.

Just to clear everything once I slam. Clearance to coil is also VERY close. 1 finger gap

That sounds pretty roomy to me!

Unless you have tiny fingers? :iono:

its a tight fitment. but im gonna end up spacing it a bit in the future. the +43 is both a helper and hinderer.

Lots of poke in the front for my taste but it looks great with the stretched tire and I am sure it will be alleviated by your plans to slam it. I love these wheels to death too.

Front tires seem a bit stretched and poke out of the wheel well a bit. I think if the car were lower, overall it would look better. Only other thing, would be to get a clear side-marker, ditch that amber one.

Otherwise its clean and subtle, I really like the overall look.

Pokes actually not that bad after I lowered another 1/2 inch. It's pretty flushed out
