Yes, another f'n sportmax thread.

Anyone have pics of this set up? I'm about to get rid of my 17's and get some 15x8's due to the sh*tty roads out here and don't want to lower any more than my TRD spring/shock setup. Maybe some H-tech pics would suffice, since not too many have the TRD drop it seems.

Not sportmaxs, but these are the same size 15x8 (if you were planning on getting them) and this is w/ TRD springs/struts. I bolted these on a few days before putting my coilovers back on this summer.

In my opinion you should go lower. I thought my car looked ridiculous like this.

Offset? Tire size?

read my profile.

front is +25 A disk, rear is +10 O disk. Tires are 195/55/15.
In those pictures though I still had OTG rear spacers on the car. That would put it around a 0 offset which is what the 002's would be. Thats why I thought I should show you these.

Here's my setup:

2" drop all around using Tom's Lowering Springs.

Front: 15 x 7 +38 offset
Rear: 15 x 8 0 et

I rub a little in the rear considering my drop. I had to roll my rear fenders but other than that I love the way it looks. Here are some pics:
