Hey thats me! I guess its about time for me to post on this and kinda sum a few things up haha.
I'm rocking 18x9.5 +25 w/10mm spacers ET 15 Fronts with 225/40/18 tires, and 19x10 +20 Rears with 235/35/19 tires. Yeah its double staggered
They're xxr 522's, but stfu, I love how they look and I could afford "real" wheels if I wanted them.
I'm on Stance GR+ coilovers and have megan racing camber arms, all of my fenders are rolled (obviously) but my rear fenders are widened 1/2" on each side (not pulled, hate the look). The rear bumper is also realigned with the wider fenders. Camber is around -2.5 in front and -4.5 in the rear.
I have about 1 3/4" front bumper clearance about 1/2" mudguard clearance and 2.75" side aero clearance. I am lower than tilt but it does get kind of frustrating at times because it takes 4 side by side 2x4's to get out of my driveway and I need a 2x4 to get from my driveway into my garage. BUT once I'm on the street its all good haha.




Rear fitment on the 19x10



Dat ***

and here is the pic showing that a 2/4 can't even get under my car.


Oh and its the mint blue front end and spoiler if you guys were wondering. Also rocking the revi air duct.
let me know if you guys have any questions!

Great recent cars guys.

NYC, would seriously be perfection if only lowered a bit more. Did you lower it and raise it back up?

Anyone looking for inexpensive wheels, these would be a perfect option for aggressive but not over-the-top RX8 fitment. Run some 255/35's on there with rolled but not pulled fenders, oh yeahhhh ->

Even with that height, I'm surprised he can make it around here in NYC without tearing the MS bumper off along with other hardware.

My parents got a place in San Diego, and every time I go, I wish my 8 came with. Dramatic difference in road quality. I've heard that I-5 around LA is in **** condition, but when I drove on it with my sister's Civic coupe, it was a little rough in texture on construction areas, but still think its far better than the turd roads we have here.

Well, it is definitely not perfect as a lot of people make it seem. Still, based on weather and age the roads are better over here. I mean, I've been daily driving my car at the current height for quite a while without any *huge* problems.

I want to say I read somewhere that the I5 causes more damage to cars that lead to repairs than any other highway. I could be crazy though.
