So how much lower is the rear than stock ? I'm surprised how much those wheels tuck in. Mine is still at stock height and the rim edge pokes out which was starting to worry me a bit after getting followed by a cop car yesterday.

rear is about 2.5" lower and front is about 2" lower. Without touching any camber on the rear it is sitting at negative 2.1 degrees at that height, the fronts at neg 1.35 deg. Wheels dont foul on anything at all.
these are the coilovers.

How does the car feel with the huge wheels on and what is your alignment specs? Considering getting similar sizing if there isn't too much tramlining

I can't really compare the ride quality with stock as I put 12kms on the car before I bolted the wheels ad suspension on.
Currently the car feels amazing, incredibly grippy, still good fun in the wet, ride isn't harsh at all, I did a 700km cruise through twisties and had no issues with comfort. IMO I love it. Gtx3071r + tial housing is on its way. Stay tuned

How did you get the rear toe back to zero.

I dropped mine 30mm and it had 25mm Toe Out. I ran out of adjustment and will raise it 5 mm to help reduce the 2.5 mm toe out I have now.

Do you mind taking front and back fitment shots to show the poke/tuck on them, thanks.

Hmm my toe wasn't that bad :/. I got it back to zero but it was maxed on adjustment

Thanks! 6 months of looking at pics and I'm no closer to deciding on my sizes lol.

Yeh but the fronts look like they sit out too much so wouldn't 8.5s +38 upfront be better?
