^+1

no need to run skinny tires. It's not that hard to fit w/rolled fenders.

Thanks for some info guys. I am gonna drop it pretty low I'm dropped about 3 inches right now I think.and want to go a little more.

The reason I was gonna go +22 is because if I don't do That I'd have to go +12. So I'd probably just get some 5mm spacers all around. Dlum I look forward to the pics.

225s on +12 is roughly equivalent to 245s on +22 just with more poke/stretch/full retard

here we go. 18x9.5 +22 super stretched on 215/40's.




idk why, probably because of the tires, but when i put them on, i acquired some serious wheel gap hahah. now i need a drop again -.-x

yes because going from 225/45 to 215/40 shortens the sidewall by 0.6" on each side

basically dropped the car by that much as well.
