The wheels are 18X9 with a 29 offset. As stated before, the tires rub barely in the rear on big bumps. Right now I only have lowering springs, but will be getting some coilovers next week or the week after. This is a EVO application and does fit with minor rolling of the rear fenders. I've driven the car to and from the track lastnight and all day today. It rubbed one time today.

Once the coilovers go on and get it aligned, I'll try to mess with the dampening to see if just stiffening the ride up a bit will help with the rubbing. If it doesn't, rolling the rear fenders will be the last option.

I had 245/40's on my Volks when I first bought them and they rubbed at full lock. The 255/35's even with the width of the wheels and offset have yet to rub making a sharp turn.

Yeah.....I suppose 275's could fit, but they're not really needed and you would have to roll the fenders cause they need to be rolled with 255's on them.

After I put them on, I drove about 60-70 miles to and from the track and I heard it rub 3 times on the way there and one time on the way back. I though the rubbing would be really bad, but it wasn't.

I should be getting my DoLuck replica lip back from getting it painted this week or next to complete the look. All in all....I think I like these better than my CE's. The over all stance of these wheels just make the car look pissed IMO.
