Yo 962 peoples! Glad to have found this thread.. Got a couple questions I have 17x9 +35 all around gold 962s. On a s13!

1) I have a 10mm spacer in the front and the tire is already sticking out. HOW do you guys have like 30mm spacers and are bearly sticking out? My tread of the tire is showing a little already..

2) I had a guy at a tire store mount a 215/45 on a 17x9 wheel it looked like it could bearly fit on it and if it didnt have like 40 psi it would just start hitting the curb on the edges. Wheel looked way too big.

3) My coilover gets hit on the driver side but not the passenger for some reason.. using a 10mm spacer. The tire sticks out to where the fender is over the tread a little bit already. I am considering selling the 2 fronts and getting the 17x7 front with staggered. If i could make this setup work and not have my wheels sticking out like crazy LMK!!

4) Also with a 225/45 up front I have to gut the inner fender cover to make it not rub. Any thoughts?

Oh, just to share this.. the passenger side doesn't stick out as much as the driver side. it clears the coilover on passenger side but not driver. I figure somethings gotta be bent?

Please help!
