^^^Nice. Once you drop it, it will all just tuck under the fenders no worries?^^^
I just replaced 19x8s with 19x19.5's on the rear on Friday.
19x8 +35 on the front with 245/40
19x9.5 +25 on the rear with 245/40
It looks waay better, but it still needs spacers or something...

I'm running 40-psi, recomended on my tire is like 35 or something. I have no scientific explanation for it, I just said "hey I'll go +5" and that was it. max is like 50-psi, so I'm still in the safe zone. You always want to keep tabs on tire pressure, it's ok to be higher than recommended (but not beyond maximum) but it's NEVER good to go on the low side - moreso on stretched fitments on a street driven daily driver.

Alright, so my wheels FINALLY showed up.
I got the XXR526s in 18x9 +25 and 18x10.5 +20
Im trying to figure out tire sizes. Ive read page after page on this thread, and what Ive come up is 225/35 front and 245/35 rear. Going for an aggressive look with mild/ moderate stretch.
What do you guys think??

Well, I got a killer deal on a set of tires. They didnt have any 18in tires in a 35 series.. SO, I got 225/40/18 (Front) and 245/40/18 (Rear).
The stretch is pretty mild, but im happy with how they look. I just hope they will clear the fenders haha.
Ill post pics tomorrow.
