^^^Tastefully done!

Modest offset w/aggressive wheel & tire width

thanks man!! I did bug you and everyone else enough about wheel and tire fitment, figured I'd finally share what I done!!.... Now I'm just trying to decide on coilovers and what spring rates to go with!

Nice! Yeah that is about the perfect size and offset for our cars. And a 265 (depending on manufacturer, of course) is at home on a 9.5 wheel. Nice choice! I like that they fit without spacers.

My extra shocks surplus is only a set of Ohlin DFVs with one rear having a bent shaft. Seems it would be around 500-700 to fix that one unless I could just find a new rear but then wouldnt match the other revalved rear. So I havent seen a real perk to fixing these to sell. Instead they just take up space on my shelf.. doh.

I did receive my 18x10's in the mail Saturday. Clearance isn't even close to being an issue. I mocked them up on my car which is sitting on jackstands.

I was surprised by the color of the wheels when I received them. Darker than expected but they are absolutely beautiful in person. Awesome color.

Pics when you get tires mounted. Would be interested to see said clearances.

Will do!

I would like to clarify my previous post today in regards to "clearance". I was only referring to caliper clearance when I mocked them up the other day. I still don't have the coilovers on to really see if tire to coilover clearance will be an issue yet or not!

I did finally have a chance to mock up the front coilovers and wheels. It seems that there will be NO clearance issues running either the 18x10.5" +30 NT03M or the 18x10 TC105X with the Reinhart setup I have on 285 mm RE71R (the hoosier A7 is very similar, but the clearance might be a tad less. I'm guessing it'll be fine with a 3mm spacer for sure. I'll try and get some pictures soon.

The only issue I was running into, was the stud that the brake lines mount to, was rubbing against the inner metal structure of the wheel well. I'm checking with TF Works as we speak. It almost seems like the base of the coilover might be for an evo X? I'm just guessing here... Actually basing it off of post #27 I'm betting that's what it is..... https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/mo...reinharte.html

I'm not sure if I mentioned this but I'm on 6" springs up front with helpers as well.

I know we talked about it before, but did you get any shock dynos with those shocks? Curious if they also have the 1in/sec knee that the "other" brands have.

Hi Dallas,

Yes they did include those. Here's a link to their FB post:


Thoughts?
