I know, I know... I hate the look of fender gap. but I have Tein S tech springs mounted. It does not look that bad in person. Ill get some fender shots tomorrow so you can see the off set and closer rim shots

Nice wheels!

I have 245/40 on all 4 and it tends to udnersteer untill proded with the right foot. I cant imagine what that setup is like. Also if you have DSC staggering like that will make it very sensitive. There is over 1/2in difference in dia from front to back. Your front tires are 1.5" smaller than mine...thats honda civic size.

No DSC no nothing for traction electronics.

I really have not pushed the car yet. Just breaking in the tires but from what i noticed so far is oversteer. going to mess around with the swaybars and tire pressure to see if i can eliminate some of that

Wheels look good bro. It sucks that you ended up with the wheel gap though. I guess you will be buying coilovers now?
