Currently running 245/35/30 and 285/30/20 with 32/42 offsets f&r. Dropped on eibach pro kit springs.

I'm really happy with the setup (especially this sick color combo) but my only complaint is that I wish the rear was just a smidge lower in order to close up that minor rear wheel gap...

I was considering switching to tein h tech but I hear quality us not great and that rear will eventually sag lower than front which is the last look I'd want to end up with. I like the raked look, just wish that damn wheel gap in rear was closed up a bit more...

Get some coils then and adjust them as you need. If they were just put on they will settle a little bit more.

You can either go coilovers for full adjustment or you can cut the rear spring isolator 1/2" to lower the rear. PM TVPostSound about this.

I was thinking either that or switching to tein h tech springs. Do you know how those compare?

So you see the issue I'm talking about in the rear? I either need to change to a different drop or do the rear seat mod to fix it. Looks like the swift springs still have that rear gap.. Looks just like eibach to me.

Very new to wheels and all. I see all this talk about offsets. I did a quick Google search and it talks about the mount compared to the center of the wheel. So I am understanding that an offset that is smaller means that the spokes are more concave since the mount is closer to the center of the wheel?

I'm possibly considering getting some wheels. I'm currently on stock 225/55/17. Not really thinking of lowering or anything (not that hardcore about it...yet). Most likely looking at 19" wheels because they cost a little less (better for budget). It's a 2010 AWD. Hoping for suggestions. I'm digging the VVSCV1, VVSCV4, or the VVS-086 (leaning toward CV1 though). Trying to find pictures of these on a Smokey Quartz colored car because I can't decide between all silver or the matte black machined silver.
