Lowered? If so how much? Specs on rims?

I'm going to be getting 18x9.5 +40 offset and thinking of going 245/35/18 with inch and a half drop.

Nice, a lot of the 18x9.5" wheels are in +38 and they have too much poke for my taste. +43 or +45 is perfect to me.

Looks really nice - I'm running the same setup albeit 8.5" wide. How close are the 255's to scrubbing? I'm looking at getting same tyre size 255/35/18.

I know its an old post but how much camber where you running front and rear? What did your tire to coilover clearance look like??
Im trying to go wide without too much camber

Did you roll your fenders, are there any negative camber? It's really low, ever went over a speed bump, does it rub on the fender?

Sick car sick wheels and sick color

I run 255/35R18 on 18x9 wheels, +35 offset. Springs, not coilovers too.
With the right amount of camber, these fit quite nicely.

Thinking of going 265 all around on my next set of tires.
