I really don't know but the person that told me that info had experience with 18x9.5" +40 offset rims and he has an rs 1.0 with trd springs too.

Any more insight would be greatly appreciated.

So where's the cheapest price to get these rims?

Also, why get these over the newer gram lights rims coming out? I definitely love the look of the 57xtremes over all of the gram light rims...but I just want to hear everyone's opinion.

Curious about this as well.

Planning on getting 57xtremes 18x9.5 +40 square set up with 245/35/18. Federal 595 RS-R with Megan track series coilovers. Would this set up rub? Assuming I would moderately drop the car to show no wheel gap. Thanks

Stay very, very, very far far away from Megans. I know two people that had catastrophic failures with them. Such nice wheels for cruddy suspension.

To answer your question, some camber all around will keep you from rubbing. SOME camber is good anyways, just dont go extreme and do the "stance" stuff.

Just put on 18x9.5 +40 57Xtremes on my car. I have TEIN street flex coilovers. Had to raise the car up a bit. Went with 265/35/18 Michelin Pilot Super Sports for tires all around. No rubbing.

Car sits exactly 26" from fender to floor.

Did have to adjust the front camber with the plates but no issues. Rear has natural camber.

Thanks everyone. Any recommendations as to what coilovers I should get for a budget of $1000-1200. I'm mostly aiming for performance ride feeling. I would buy kW v3 but it's obviously out of my budget

Thanks guys

TEIN, FEAL, any number of different ones are available around that range. Just stay away from the ebay stuff.

I have no issues with my fortune auto 500s, talk to jay at vivid racing if you're interested. There are a lot of members that run them too.

I just bought the FA 500's, just waiting to install them. Heard great feedback about them.

So difficult to find these without waiting for a long shipment time... about 2+ months for shipments Any vendors got these in stock? Lol

Also, has anyone seen these in the Matte Light Bronze color? Is this a new color? Haven't seen any cars with it, but found a pic posted by Mackin (who I think is an importer for RAYS)

Yeah Rays released that color a little bit ago. It is new. I dont think anyone in the states will have that color on their car.
