soo i've got a question
I'm currently running:
18x8.5 +38 on 225/40, dropped with about 13.25 inches from center of wheel to ground (1.2-1.5ish drop, don't know what stock was)
Fitment is okay, however I'm starting to think about spacers.
I'm running a fair amount of camber (-1.3f, -1.8r) so it's not as flush as some of the other pictures of the same setup.
Any recommendations on the correct spacer setup without a need for a roll? I rarely carry more than one passenger, so rubbing with a full car is not an issue
I was thinking 10mm up front, 15mm or 20mm in the rear... comments?
and semi off topic question:
Here are my wheels:
I'm thinking a 10mm and 15mm spacer with its own studs normally wouldn't clear most rims (since the studs the spacers attach to might be too long without shaving)... however, i see a lot of 5zigens have 10 holes. are those extra 5 (obviously not for mounting) for spacer compatibility?

i knew a friend that put some rims on his car which were fine.. but only when he was in it alone.. would that probably be the same case for me? i have sport suspension and it is pretty stiff though..

final check on offset
I'm doing a final check on the offset before I put in my order, I'm more concern on the offset for the rear without rolling when car is loading with passengers and audio equipments. Originally I have picked +42 for the rear but I'm having 2nd thought. I think front is ok and it is the lowest offset they have.
For the tire, is 255/35/19 too wide for the front? I don't want any heavy feeling during turn or make the steering feel heavier.
F - 19x8.5 +35 (255/35/19)
R - 19x9.5 +35 or +42 or +45 (255/35/19)
