New wheels! Weds SA-10r in 18x9.5 +45 with 255/35/18 Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires.
Ugh, car show people... These two looked like they wanted to make out.

Absolutely loving them. I've had KW V3s, Tein Flex, and Koni Yellows + Ground Control sleeves / springs on other cars and these are by far the best performing and most comfortable coils I've had.

These look great! Perfect fit! Did you need any extra camber adjustment on these past the bit that comes with your coils? I'm running the same coils, wheel size and tires but 245 PSS instead of 255. I want to know if I need to buy anything extra before installing. Thanks! |

Not at all. I set the front top hats to the -1.5° camber setting upon install, which resulted in about -2° camber front and rear at this height. Once the wheels / tires came, I threw them on and everything fit fine.
You're good to go dude. Get those 255s!

Thanks! I actually already ordered the 245s though, I was too much of a wimp to go with the 255s On Michelin's site they say the 245s are good up to a 9.5" wheel so I should be ok.
