Not to thread jack, but....







me too man, sick choice in wheels! I'm loving mine just got them on today but it was pooring all day and will be for the next 4 days in PA so I probably won't get out to get a nicer photoshoot in. My iPhone can't pick up the color of the wheels, they end up blending too much and are too dark w/ the tire but look amazing in person. Good choice!

Thanks man. I've already had JIC and HKS coilovers but I got offers to sell them too good to pass up haha. Looks like TEIN is next for me.

Thanks for the info. That's close to mine with Tababe front (27") and Sport rear (17.25) springs.

I'm still unclear on what made you decide to use spacers in the front. Can you provide some clarity on your decision?

19in FLAT BLK Volk g2 type II w/ lip
19x.9.5 offset +35
19x10.5 offset +35.

Tires:
Hankook Ventus Evo
245/40/19
275/35/19

I'm not running any spacers... fronts could probably use one but I am fine with where it is at, a lot more flush than stock. I didn't want to rub because I am pretty low. I will be getting some measurements for height and taking some more pics this week

Thanks for the update... I'll look forward to new pictures and the supension/height information. Wheels look great!

btw I measured that height is from the ground to the MIDDLE of the fender.
It's because when I was lowered on stock wheels, I was running spacers, and when I put the new wheels on, they weren't as flush as my stock wheels were, and I wanted to retain that look

Yeah he is enjoying them haha. He's at my house every other day doing something or other to his car haha. He just jacked my swag. Got the same car as me after I had mine for almost two years (two Fridays ago). Got the same coilovers I had, and the same wheels. Talk about a twin lolz.
