Did i need coilovers that i can fit the 9.5 +35 in the rear? Got my car lowered by TEIN H-Tech springs. And if they fit, will they flush or poke out a bit?

Greetings maceSWISS
In the rear, the 9.5s should be good with the H-Tech springs. How low do the H-tech springs drop? Since the BRZ naturally cambers when you lower it, how much it pokes out will be dependent on how low it is. With the coilovers, there is a slight tuck in the rear.

Nice set up, im gonna be running a 18x9.5 wheel with +20offset wrapped in 225/40 tires. Wheels will poke out about half an inch more than yours, based on your experience do you think i will clear it? There seems to be enough room up front the pic shows about a 1" gap and the rear even more, but you seeing the fitment on your car, you think i can pull it off?

It is just my DD. So that is exactly what it is for haha. When purchase a new DD, this will get downgraded to a track car and will have more practical wheel fitment.

Should clear. 225s in the front clear perfectly, and if you are stretching the tires more, you shouldn't have any clearance issues. For the rears, I can fit larger tires (should have in retrospect), so it would fit.
