My thoughts exactly, which is why I have requested a quote at +34.

Slightly better pictures after a little tire shine application.

That was w/ that spring wrap to raise it a bit right? Looks pretty good but appears that the back is a bit lower, maybe it's just the angle of the shot??
Nice looking wheels BTW.

Definitely could be the angle of the shot. I think the car looks very even gap wise in the front and rear. I'll take a new shot from the side when the car is level and post it.

Thanks btw, I love my new wheels. Truly makes the car I think. Next is the oem front lip and led halos.

Ok, here it is what I hope to be my last question on my planned squared setup:

Going with 18x9.5 ET34 wheels; so thinking about tires, specifically overall tire height.

Calculators have me at stock: 682 mm (I'm on spacers, so tires look almost flush)
So if I play with width and sidewall height:
265/45: 696 mm. Maybe too tall, but now the wheel is tucked so it might be ok.
265/40: 669 mm. Shorter than stock
275/45: 705 mm. Way too tall.
275/40: 677 mm. This might be it, perhaps 5 mm spacers for the flush look. Worried about the fit on the front.
285/45: 714 mm. Nope
285/40: 685 mm. Right height, not sure about the fit on the front... or back.

What would be the optimal tire size?

I considered it, but isn't that stretch tire territory? Not the look I am looking for.

Definitely not. I had 255s on 9.5 before and there was no stretch at all. I'm currently running 245s on my 9.5 and there is barely any stretch. 255/45/18 would be a great size.

Ryne, would you say the fronts look a tad more pushed out than the rears? That's a +25 all around?

Awrite... I'll look more into this tire size. Thanks!
