I think the version without the side vents is called the RK sport hood.

I'd try 245/35. I have 255/35 and it rubs.

I thought about it but I don't want to go any lower than 255. I rub right now on bumps because im so close to the tire. If i raise maybe 1/4" with 35s i should be perfect. I'm not really concerned about how low I am lol.

I actually had to raise more than 1/2 inch all around compared to how it was with the stock wheels/tires and I still rub. That's partly due to the coils having full suspension travel no matter how low or high the car is. I'm gonna end up having to roll the fenders.

This past week I have installed the Tein Street Flex Coilovers, REd Gram Light 57Xtreme and 255/35/18 Michelin Pilot Super Sports. Seeing as I have only had the car for 1 month I think I may be addicted!

I don't know how exactly high your coils are set but for me I installed the coils straight from the box on factory settings and it was pretty low. Had to raise it quite a bit to fit the 18s and 40 tires. I think at this point, 35s would be perfect fitment with not much rubbing for daily driving if at all. I want to drive the car however because that's what this car was made for so I am planning on raising it a little but for better handling and less rubbing on hard corners.

I had leather seats added after market.

Put my Nurburgrings back on. Happy camper.

Went to pick up tons of shirts from the drycleaner. I then notices there is no handle to hang them from. I chuckled to myself thinking about my wife telling me how unpractical the car is. I then put the clothes in the trunk and enjoyed the hell out of the 45 minute drive home.
