Yeah it works for those style wheels. I don't know if your car is set up for that style though. Some full car shots would be good. I don't think you have to worry about going to much lower for those its a nice tuck. Are those installed with your spacers? Seems like the front has some poke.

I did not put any spacer up front. I did however put 8mm in the rear. But I think once I get some smaller tires I can put my bigger spacers back on.

Yeah its crazy how big those tires look lol. You said 225/45? Thats what I have on my stockers and to me they don't seem nearly as beefy? Maybe its because we are so used to seeing another 2" of rim instead of tire on your car

the fat tires definitely makes it look like you mean business, lol

but with your crazy poke loving **** (no homo)lmao, you should go with the 205/40's

but again, knowing you, you will never be satisfied with the look cuz you will barely be tucking tire, lol

lol! Yup 225/45. The dude that had them was gonna track them and had just bought the tires. However dam it rides so much smoother...I dont feel every bump..I like the way it rides, but I dont like the look..to much rubber!

Stupid F&F's! What worries me is once I get smaller tires I am gonna want MOAR low and these stuuuuuuuuuuuupid coilovers do not deliver. I dont want wheel gap..cause it kills..haha! Why oh why

^lulz, i know!

im sure you wont have wheel gap, but the drop is gonna make you hate it, lol

aside from that, i like the size/offset of those wheels, i would love to get a set for the daily grind and keep my rpf1's minty, but i dont feel like spending money on unnecessary wheels, my stockies are holding up to the task just fine

now post some more pics of the meaty tires on!

I like these 17's better than the 18's. From what I can see in the pics, the overall look is just better IMO. If you can drop it down just a little bit more, I think it will look grrrreat! Nice find, man.

Yeah I was considering buying another set of stockies. lol with these fat ___ tires they are about as high as my 19's.

Thanks bro....I thought is was time to let the 19's rest. The tires were getting shredded.

Yeah I think I made a wise choice in trading them. It was time for a change. I might have to but some new coilovers.

Excellent How do you like the 17x9? I just love the specs of these wheels! Are the tires stretched a bit with the width? I might hold off on the hood and pick up a set of these and swap my tires. I can't find any 17x9 w/o the "time attack" red outline tho

Thanks, they are growing on me. Yeah the specs are good and once I stretch some tires I should be able to push them out more.
