Default Last pics with wheels on - Reference thread for Tanabe DF210 + 19x10 +45 wheels

Sold my wheels this weekend, wanted to contribute by possibly helping others choose a drop and wheel size/offset as I will not be getting any new wheel setup soon. If you want a daily driveable combo of wheels and suspension try this. You wont have to roll fenders and you will not rub.

here is what is currently on here

Tanabe Df210 Springs with KYB-GR2 Shocks
19x9 19x10 AME SHALLEN LX +45 offset all around
Falken FK452 235/35/19 F 275/30/19 R

Some may remember me on coilovers with spacers but i have neither in these pics. Thanks CL!

Looks great J stuff!!

I've got 20x8.5 all around with 45mm offset. To get the same look you have I would need at least a 25mm rear spacer right?

Man it's killing me to have my Tanabe DF210s just chilling in my garage with no one to install them

Anyone in AZ want to help a n00b out?
