Clean car man I love it. Do you have any rubbing issue at all with the front tyres?

Theres no rubbing in front with 9.5 +28 Volk anything. The same offset in the back will look a little better but will require some rolling.

Thanks for the comments guys.

On relatively hard cornering the fronts will rub (my guess is on the fender lips), but in all normal road going speeds, three-point turns, etc. there is no rubbing with +28 on the front.

I chose +34 rears because I didn't want to roll my fenders, but if that doesn't bother you then +28 all round is not an issue. +34 with 255/35 comes incredibly close to the rear fender lip, but never comes into contact.

^^Your car looks gorgeous!

It reminds me of the white IX that Mines Japan built a few years ago.
Looks just like yours (even down to the same color silver Volk CE28's, and the same exact size and offsett). Only the Mines car has different mirrors in black!

Thanks mate, the Mines IX was my inspiration for the look of my car although they run +28 all round with their CE28s.

I also didn't like their choice of M3 style mirrors, so have opted to stay with the OEM ones

Wow, this thread fell back. Here's something to boost it back up.

Weds SA-67R (Gunmetal) 18x9 +20 with Kumho Ecsta SPT 235/40/18 all around.
slammed on Stance GR+ coilovers with room to go.
Front camber: -2.4 degrees
Rear camber: -3.7 degrees (maxed out stock arms)
Fenders untouched in the front and rolled in the rear.





Rest of the pics here:

Big ups to Cal and SPEED ELEMENT for hooking it up!

It drives fine. Rubs in the rear sometimes on hard turns or with people in the back. Definitely not a race setup, haha, but it's perfectly fine for the streets.
