I know, so many questions. I want 18x10's now, but I think I may just stay with my 9.5's and make the car as low as possible with front having a lower offset than the rear. lol
No you didnt! haha now you did hehe.

Well the thing is I'm not sure where to measure it from for the tread width. The section width is 10.7 just like most of the 265s. So if you going to use Re01r im sure it will be fine. I will find out the camber when I do the alignment.

Well the thing about the stance camber plate is they add a little metal ring with the bolt thats why is blocking me to get them both close together. So as long as you take that ring out you are fine or just change to some different bolt to lock it. You can see it few post up.

9.5 is good. get lower offset like +22.. heheeheeeee


Oh btw if you didnt fit your 9.5 yet. Nojeebs 9.5 have to pull the rear fender and his fender edge are all cut but still rub with out pulling. He only pulled a little tho compare to mine.

That was my goal to use as wide as possible on the rims and the tires on the stock body. Also lower the car as much as possible. Thats what so call aggressive fitments. Also I used +35 because I want less poke also but thats all the tires I can fit.

I also step up on what you other people want for the 17s with big bad wide tires also. I know how to do both but just not doing on the same car.

Starting to look like my garage...

whats the name of the tires? I can look it up online.

I think I want a 255/35 summer tire, or maybe a less wide 265/35. I just want the car to be slammed. haha

So they took your rear flares off and pulled the fenders, then put the flares back on? I hate those rear flares on a bugeye, or else I would have gotten them, it looks 10x better on 04-07 stis for some reason. haha

I think I might just pull the rear a lil anyways.

Nexen N3000 they dont show the tread width. I dont think you should put it too cause ppl will hate on you cause you using cheap tires this and that. I dont care cause I saved 600 bucks.


I did a basic alignment today. I told him not to adjust any thing for me because I want to see what the current camber are on the picture. The number are

3.1 Front (KW/w Cusco camber plate maxed to negative)
2.2 Rear (Stance /Stance plate maxed to negative and camber bolt maxed to full positive)
0 Toe

I will go back once my mount from stance are here so I can swap the front.

that looks pretty sick.. I dont know if my eyes are playing tricks on me but the pic on your first post of the extreme close up of the rim and tire looks like the tire is on the wrong side, because it looks like it has the rotation arrow pointing backwards... looks killer either way though..Nice work

stance coilovers maxed out at 2.2? How? I've seen kids get -2.6 with just camber bolts.

need to use the camber bolt push back out to postive to clear the 18x10 +35 from hitting the strut.


So with out camber bolt it will hit the strut on +35. So +29 you wront hit it but than you just pull fender more. I guess... or maybe u can add a spacer haha...
