Finally got my coilovers, wheels, and camber kits installed. Terrible pic for now. Still have to adjust the height and get an alignment, car is way to low. Once that's all finished I will try to take some better pictures.

Nice look though

Since I have the X model I went with the KSports after hearing about the noise issues some BC's have. The drive home was taken very slow to say the least. Will be playing with the height the next couple of days.

Once you get some time on them please post a review in the Review folder, we need more feedback on the KSports as they seem like a viable option, thanks!

This is perfect and exactly what I was looking for! I'm currently running 8" +48 O.Z. Ultraleggera's on my '07x and while this setup was fine at stock ride height, after lowering the car with Swifts the front wheels are VERY tucked into the fenders. Given your 8.5" +29 specs, a 20mm spacer would give me a 8" +28 setup, which would sit on the car virtually the same as yours with the only trade off being 7mm less backspacing. In the rear, I'm planning to run 15mm spacers giving me an 8" +33 setup sitting, again, almost identically to yours.

Thank you, again, for sharing! Much appreciated!

I think you've got it wrong. I had 19x8.5 +29 with a 15mm spacer which is 19x8.5 + 14 and would equal to 19x8 +8 (you would need a 40mm spacer to get the same specs). Likewise 19x9.5 +34 with a 10mm which is 19x9.5 +24 and would equal 19x8 +5 (you would need a 43mm spacer)

Ohhhh. I thought 8.5" +29 and 9.5" +34 were the specs *after* installing the spacers with the wheel's original specs being 8.5" +44 and 9.5" +44.

Oh sorry, I see how I confused you! Yeah those were the original specs and I added the spacers on top of those.

That is a very useful link and a great visual too.
