17x8 all around
+15 in front
+9 in rear
Potenza RE730 tires
205/40/zr17

No rubbing at stock height
I have tanabe springs and only RR tire barely rubs the fender on hard bumps. Need to roll the rear fenders and get Hub spacers to bring the rear out more.

I'm Guessing they're 18x8. What offset? Are they staggered offsets? Awsome look! 8)

Ya, I was wondering about that too, it sure didnt look 8 inches to me, maybe 8 centimeters 8)

Great wheels though, very nice.

It was a joke for the "Lip Police". I was planning on taking a pic of a ruler in it measuring the whole rim. :lol:

Nice. I have lip envy :lol: !! More pics of these beauties please! Try using a $1 bill (2.5" wide) for visual reference when taking pictures of the lip. Are you sticking with the Tanabe springs or do you have something in mind for the future?

Where did you order them from?

You can't have an 8" lip. That is impossible. Your rims r 17x8, so how do you get 8 inches? You should measure the lip again. If you do the math, it won't add up.

Hey My rims poke out further than the volks despite the lower offset. I have to see them in person. I am not using spacers.

The rear sits about flush, so I have some minor rubbing issues. I used a fender roller but didn't roll it enough. Still rubs on VERY hard dips. You can see on the tire where it's rubbing in the pic. The front is about 4mm out of the fender. I'm surprised there isn't any rubbing up front.

All you naysayers need to F$ck off. I am not bragging about the Works. I am making an observation at the fact that different wheels seen to have different dishes despite the offset. I never said I was the first at anything but I guess Joey is the first to quit and sell his wheels. :evil:
