People will 'hate' on what they dislike. Who gives props to **** they don't like?? Not everybody is gonna like your style. Fact of life.

Best to get over it and keep doin' you n' move with it or learn to slice 'down the street and not across the road.'

I'm not smart enough to set that up so I'll suggest this:
8 +15, 8.5 +20 , 9 +25, 9.5 +30, 10 +35, 10.5 +40
9.5"+ width & 30mm or lower offset.

Also, what's with all this bullshit talking? Who cares, everyone likes different ****. I agree, either running a wider tire or spacing it out to fill the fender more will help but in the mean time, he can do what he wants.

Here are a couple pictures to try to veer this thread back...

Ehh, I don't know if it is up anywhere, it's just a suggestion. The sliding scale thing just seems silly, 10.5 +40 hardly requires much to work in the first place.

No hookup on wheels and tires

Last and final setup is 18x10.5 +18 ce28n w/ 265/35 rs3's. I only have one picture of the setup because the day I mounted is the day my motor went (April 20) and I still haven't got my car back.

With new motor mounts and plugs I haven't had such a smooth idle since it was new!

Still 900 miles of break in though :O

Haven't been happier. Galpin in Van Nuys gets an A++++, they really care about their customers!
