Yeah, I saw that car waaay back when. How did you know the rears were Meisters?! Haha
I actually saw a widebody Porsche with the rear wheel specs I wanted for the back of my car on the front. It had some mad lip! :)

Yeees, that's the picture I saw back in the day! On Zilvia, I believe it was. So nice. And the front is so damn perfect... The fenders are crazy!

16x8+0 enkei 92's...MUST HAVE
for an idea of the fitment

Stock: 195/60 15 w/ 15x6+45 rim
New: 205/55 16 w/ 16x8+0 rim
(possibly 205/50 17 w/ 17x8 +0 if a rim I chose is in 17")
.8" shorter backspacing
100% suspension clearance, full wheel well clearance.
Sticks out 2" further then stock fender side.

Nice, they look like the SSR Reverse Mesh wheels! ;) Good choice.
Why such a tall tire, though? If you're wanting a 205, I'd say a 45 or 40 would be best for a good stance. At least that's the norm for all of the wicked setups I see. :)
 
awesome tib dude.. i was lookin into rims and suspension in the near future any advice as of how low/wide i can go before having to do wheel well work / bending fenders.. i plan on 18's but i like the stock rims so there gonna stay for a while any advice will help thanks

If you want low AND wide with stock fenders, an 18x8.5" +35 or so would probably the widest stance you'd wanna try. You'd need to run a 225 or 215, though.

how low can you go? haha
Haha, we shall see in good time... :3_devil:

anything on those flares yet tyler?
Money is slow through the winter months for me, but it's starting to pick up again. I probably could've had it in the shop by now, but I had to buy some drum equipment, which set me back about $600, so that kind of put things on hold.
Things should definitely be on their way before long! I pulled it out yesterday and it handled it's first passenger since the 18x10s! It was my girlfriend, and it never scraped on the back corner. I was proud! But then one of my friends rode in it, and I guess the passenger front tire caught the fender lip and pulled it out a little, as well as shredded some rubber. I don't give a damn at this point, though. That whole area of the fender is gonna get cut off and replaced, anyways. ;)
Also, I'm gonna be running different springs before long. Way shorter and way stiffer! I'm just gonna do some 150mm springs rated at 20 kg/mm all around. Basically no travel=more low and more poke. :3_koning:
