just for all of us want-to-be flush noobs that have read this whole thread (65 pages) and still haven't come to find which set up we like the most without the rub and no fender work. could one of the gurus post up what we should run? i'm not sold on which i should get but it will either be 18 or 19. i copied and pasted a bunch of set-ups that i liked without fender work but got them all scrambled up. fml. i passed by one post that showed "8.5+22 9.5+22 is popular." is this popular because many people run it without rubbing issues and no fender work? because if so, that is what i want to run. panama city has too many ghetto and beaten up roads that i don't feel G enough to ride it as low as most of you guys.

19x8.5 +22 19x9.5 +22 on what size tires would i need so i can keep rubbing to a minimum with no fender work? 225/35 fronts 245s in the rear?

or possibly 18x8.5 +22 19x9.5 +22..

could one of you make a list if you have time also from which set up would be best if you're trying to get the flush look with/without fender work to hella flush with fender work? that's what i was mainly looking for when i was looking through the thread but couldn't find it -__-

one more edit: and what coils or springs we should get. or just coils or just springs.

you can be ALMOST flush but definitely NOT tucked AND flush. I have some pretty weak offsets +38 I believe and I am ALMOST flush up front.

for no fender mods you can roughly run 19x8.5+25 19x9.5+28 to +32 depending on tire size.

p.s. you cant post rubbing pix until you do



curb marks arent from me, this when i took the wheels off to be refnished and get new back tires.
