I will be receving my custom Work meisters in the following spec for my 2is:

18x10+11 and 18x11+6

Is that aggresive enough?

My setup:
19x8.5 front 225/35/19 offset 35
19x9.5 rear 265/30/19 offset 45

As aggressive as I would ever want to go on a static daily driver

no spacers at all, i understand body work will be needed but i think you're exaggerating. i've seen people do 10.5 in front and 11.5 in the rear and are only running camber and pulls on our cars.

You can make it work, and I would really like to see it done...but make sure you do it right and take your time. If not, one dip and bye bye fender and wheel lip...

You'll be fiiiine if stretch/poke is your game.

You can tuck the fronts with Megan front UCA's, I am with the equivalent amount of "poke" on my 9" front . The rears won't quite tuck with Megan arms maxed out, maybe with a hard pull. 18's camber a tad more than 19's. Thanks for not going conservative lol

haha I exaggerated just a little bit but you will need a hard pull but I myself wouldn't pull that hard. I forgot about the use of camber arms that you could also use. But I guess the main thing that'll make this work is that you're on bags.

If you were static, it would be so much more of a struggle

Yea I was told by him before buying rims of all the work. He told me if anything it would just be small flares needed and of course camber it. I already have rear camber in the back just need to get the front now. I'm on FB as eloy Maldonado Gutierrez if you guys wanna follow on the build as I'm not really on here

Very nice work. Loving the aggressive pull up front. Fitment is spot on. If only we could find a way to take the bumper tab out without using the external quick release. Still looking for a way to do that.

Care to share offsets? 11/11.5 is quite a feat.

Yeah I've thought countlessly on ways to have some sort of hidden quick release without hitting the tire, so luck so far ( I could do it with much smaller wheels though) And I honestly do not know the offsets on these wheels... at ride height my rears are at -7 degrees camber, aired out I assume I'm at least -9 degrees. I really don't think the offset is under +20 but I really don't know, thanks for the compliments!
