Default Ace alloy aff05

20x9 et32 with a 245/35 michelin pilot sport as3+ (50lbs total)
20x10 et40 with a 275/30 michelin pilot sport as3+ (54lbs total)
On coilovers
SPC camber arms

I said I wouldn't mod this car but this is amazing fitment.

Minor rubbing in the rear cuz im quite low and my suspension is quite soft. Will prob just do some extremely minor fender roll or just let the tire wear down a little more.

Thinking I am going to be switching to coilovers once my struts go. The Tanabe's work just fine with the fsport suspension correct? Any issues after switching to them?

You lose AVS but that's not much of a negative at all.

Let me know if you need help on your setup. I can advise which coilovers to suit your driving

is there a reason a lot of you guys went tire sizes 245/35/20 front and 275/30/20 rear? it seems like 245/35/20 front and 285/30/20 rear would fit the car even if you're dropped (modestly, on rsr downs or swift springs). that ratio keeps the wheel diameter difference within 1% and provides a little bit more protection for the rear wheels vs. 275/30/20. am i missing something?

depending on the rear offset, a 285 would probably rub. on a 275, i'm really close to rubbing the rear fender tabs (I actually downsized to a 10" to fit the 275 better vs a 10.5"). I'm also at 2.6 degree of rear camber or else i'd definitely rub and would need to roll my fenders. i'm also on coilovers so i might be lower than guys on springs.

most guys are running a 10.5" with 45 offset on a 275 width tire, so use that as a reference as a setup that doesn't rub.
