The New Wheels
#18
Here's a few pictures of my 2013 with the new Advan RG-D's. They are 19x9 35mm offset and 19x10 35mm offset. Tires are Michelin PSS, 235 40 and 265 35. I rolled the rear slightly and might need to roll some more, I haven't really driven the car spiritedly after the install. Let me know what you think!

WOW! That looks really nice and fast! These wheels were in my top three but I could not get comfortable with the fitment...I have a few questions as follows:
1) Are u lowered at all...please explain with details.
2) I assume you had the inner plastic under the front fender melted and moved but did you roll the rear or anything?
3) Why tire size 235/40 and 265/35 as that is a larger diameter than stock and wouldn't a 235/35 & 265/30 made fitment work better...not ******* your setup as I like the fact that you got more sidewall to fit...will help with handling and everyday bumps in the road but just wonderign why those tire sizes?
Thanks and enjoy the Advan's they are friggin bad ***...

Pictures shown on first post show car lowered on Swift springs. Now lowered on Ohlins coilovers.
2) I assume you had the inner plastic under the front fender melted and moved but did you roll the rear or anything?
Correct on the front liners. The rear fenders are rolled, Tires rub the liners during high speed dips.

I didn't want to go too low profiles on the tires then.
Thanks!

Love the MkIII. I still like the styling better than the MkIV, but I love what the MkIV does straight out of the box.
