Picked up these 527s with tires last week for a steal. I will be daily driving on these and holding on to my RPF1s for track days. The tires on these are currently all mismatched but I will be getting new tires for them soon.

There is a lot of talk on lug nuts on this thread so i wanted to let everyone know (so you dont make the same mistake i made) these Circuit Sport lug nuts DO NOT FIT. The taper diameter is too large.

So we should be seeing some burn out videos with the old tires ye?

Your ride looks awesome!

I just ordered my 18x8.75 +35 and can't decided on what tire size to get.
I'm in debate if I should go for 235/45/18 or 225/45/18.
I'm still looking around for coils.
I may go with your setup.

Just 2 questions. No rubbing? How low?

Thanks!

These are 18x8.75 +35 with 235/45/18 Dunlop Direzza Z102 square.

Lowered on Hotchkiss Springs

Go with the 235/40/18's. (i posted my tire size incorrectly, not 235/45 they are 235/40....i edited it to be correct) I feel there is too much stretch on the 225's but to each their own.

i lowered mine on Hotchkiss Springs, i think they lower the car 1.5". I can easily go a half inch lower with my setup if i were to buy coilovers...no rubbing at all.

Any one running a 17x8.25 on a 235/40? If so can you chime in on how the car feels and handles? Also does it throw the speedo off by much?
