^ Mainly for the looks. I wanted really wide rims/tires at the back. 9.5 is pretty wide i guess lol.

but also cause i want my front wheels to be more tucked in than my rears jkz jkz (LOL referring to your little dispute with mazda_rx804)

No worries, 9.5 +22 with 245's will still require rolled fenders all around, shaved tab in rear and probably -1.8 camber

yep, roll your fenders. that much of a stretch you should be fine. (Im assuming you mean +19 & +31, not negative offsets)

LOL, didnt even read where he said he didnt want to roll fenders. Why does everyone think it's a big deal to roll fenders? Takes 1 hour for all 4 and you notice no cosmetic difference.

18x8.75 +20 with 245/40/18 would look really good. Would require rolled fenders though. Aggressive look requires rolled fenders anyway...

they have 9.75 with +20 and +35, is there any advantage to getting those instead.

They will be wider and possibly have more concavity/lip.

Hey guys, I just picked up a set of SSR D5Rs from a forum member:

19x9 +45
255/35/19
Lowered on H-techs w/ Tokico D-specs

By themselves I guess I'll be fine, but I was considering adding 20mm spacers to the setup. What will I be looking at in terms of fender modification, if any at all?

Also, anyone know for sure if TPMS works on these wheels? They were originally sold at Tire Rack (which I believe only sells compatible wheels), so I'm hoping so.

Thanks!

Tires may be too tall and rub the inner fenders when you turn with spacers. Also roll fenders and trim the rear bumper tab. I'd suggest 245/35 instead to get rid of the first part and 15mm spacers since you aren't very low.

Sweet, glad somebody bought Sifu's wheels. If you want to add the spacers, roll your fenders front and rear, shave rear tabs and you should be good to go. A little bit of camber wouldn't hurt either if you still rub.

FYI, I have 19x9 +25 with 245/35/19 but am probably much lower than you and I'm at -1.9 F and -1.8 R camber.
