take a good pair of wire cutters...cut 5-6 slits in your fender lip before you roll ur fenders in the rear...it releases tension on the metal so it can fold under properly...and you get sans pressure dents

I know there isn't much of a difference, but the center caps make them that version, rather then the EVO.

95KA-Turbo · 04-30-2008, 01:47 PM

Wrong thread....but for a super mild stretch go for a 205/45..if you want moreof a stretch go with a 195/45.

Phil703 · 04-30-2008, 03:41 PM

New wheels.

Size - 18x9.5 +25
I need to find some 235/40/18's I got two free 215/45/18's but I dont know if I should mount them or not....

ZenkiCam · 04-30-2008, 03:45 PM

yes the tires you have will look fine. put some 15mm spacers on there and youll be gravy

Phil703 · 04-30-2008, 03:58 PM

My 215's? Hmm. Also, How do i mount these things lol. I'm guessing the original... Starter fluid and a lighter method?

SoSideways · 04-30-2008, 04:34 PM

Why are people posting pics of their cars NOT on the ground?

Phil703 · 04-30-2008, 04:46 PM

^ you pay for my tires. If not, Stop complaining.

Phil703 · 04-30-2008, 04:53 PM

For all those people who think you'll rub with 9.5's on your springs, Your wrong.

No spacer or anything.

SoSideways · 04-30-2008, 04:56 PM

You are showing a wheel up against struts.

Struts places the springs above the wheels.

Coilover places the springs next to the wheels, thus you lose a bunch of clearance when you run coilovers.

Most people say that 9.5 +23 won't clear COILOVERS, and that even depends on the coilovers on whether or not it will clear or rub.

Picture of weakness.

No spacer or anything.

Thats because your only rocking springs and shocks.

If you had coilovers then you'd have some issues.

SleepyS-14 · 04-30-2008, 05:52 PM

18x9.5 +4 235/40r18
18x9.5 +12 255/35r18

idahotuner · 04-30-2008, 05:56 PM

plus you dont have tires on there and i bet with any type of a bulge it would rub.
