Just got my new wheel and tires, 17*9 +35 ambit wheels and federal 595 RS_R 255/40/17, the front tires looks a little bit wider but rear is perfect

Looking good - now for a bit of a drop, some camber adjustment and an alignment.

Yeah, sure, just bought front camber bolts, but no rear control arms yet

Is that on stock suspension? No issues with rubbing at all with those sizes? Especially with full turn wheel lock?

Yes, with stock suspension, and on the canyon road, I didn't hear anything

Nice! No spacers either I'm assuming?

I was thinking about getting the same color but different wheels. Looks good. Bit of a drop and your good to go. The tires looks really meaty.

BTW - I run the same tire size (Pole Position s-04 255/40/17s) on 57xtremes (17x9 40 offset - no spacers). Here is how the same size tire looks when tweaked...

I think 18's fill that well out a little better but I love the handling (and cheaper rubber) on the 17 setup.

I am going to run Hankook RS3s this summer and move to a Michelin PSS for the wet winter.
