I just got Eibach springs and 265/35/18 square on 18x9 +35 Volk VR.G2s put on my sedan and really happy with the look.

Once I get the car cleaned and drive a bit more I will post pics and driving impressions.

That's the name of the game for all of the square fitments. If the front wheels don't look a tad more pushed out than the rear, the angle of the picture is deceiving you. With that said, this really is about as good as you can get with a square setup at 9.5" +25 and 255 width tires. If you just look at the car you're not going to think the front are further out than the rear.

I have a 255/40R19 on a 9.5" wheel and I definitely wouldn't call it stretched.

Nice looking wheels BTW.
BLNEWT - side view, good even gap.

^ That picture has really been overcooked with filters/edits making it very grainy, lol.

No filters just 3.0x zoomed in from my phone, didn't realize that it was grainy on my 4" screen. My apologies. Also the reflection of the fence off my car probably adds an effect making it look that way.

I hope this helps.
Which part number did you use for your springs? And does the sleeve fit snug around the coil metal?

Finally got a set of wheels I like, and switched from the stock staggered set-up to a square one. Car is mildly lowered.

This is without spacers - I have a set of 5/10mm spacers for the front/rear to push them out a bit more but it's not bad. The wheels are Work 11R 18x9.5 +38 on 265/40/R18.

Nice shoes! Looks like a decent fit even without the spacers.
