Still undecided on what wheels i'll be getting but probably play it safe with something that already been proven to work like a 19x9+22ish and 19x10+22ish. My friend is going to Japan in march and with throw them in his container in spring.

Not sure if I want multi spoke, mesh, full face... All I know is there will be dish!

I'd like to edit the first post with wheel and tire specs and what it take to fit. So if someone could post what they believe to be aggressive fitment.

Just taking a stab at it

19x9+22 225/35/19
19x10+22 245/35/19

20x9+22 225/35/20
20x10+22 245/35/20


Melt the front liner and push it in
Roll or shave the rear fenders


This is just a guess

please let me know if this is accurate

I'm trying to stay away from a wheel that has been done on a 2IS. But who know it's hard to do that when already have seen them on our car.

Maybe LEON HARDITT?

Updated with specs. Tires are too fat and barely made it out of my drive way. What's a good skinny tire so I can pull this off, any suggestions?

Yes they are too fat, I would go 225/35 and at least 255-265/35 but if you like your current rear look then suit yourself.

Offsets below the 20's definitely scream out aggressive so those are aggressive settings but i'm not a fan of 20's so I would tell you to go 19's in those offsets. You might also want to consider going in the 10.5 width just for a wider rear look from rear view.
