I'm guessing youre getting RPF1's? I can't imagine you'll need to do anything really. A fender roll won't hurt but I can almost guarantee you won't need to do much else. Its just not the most aggressive drop.

I did it for what i'm guessing will be your setup and you will have a 5.95mm close in gap to the fender. Hope this helps.

Does anyone have/ does it exist - Rules and regs for being qualified for "hellaflush" I know there is diff categories like, slam, tuck, poke, strech etc. But does anyone know what it takes to claim a category (for the most part)?

Man, I'm pretty sure you qualify. I think you run an aggressive set up to be sure.

Ive been told that Im not even close yet. lol Well the front is ok (especially for the tire I gotta run for power-to-ground) but Ive been told the rear needs major work. Cant go lower for a number of reasons so i was wondering if i would then be considered "poke" if I threw some 15mm's on the rear with the drop I have...?

Pfft.. No..
Well, maybe..
Yep. Well, hopefully. I have the down payment in hand, just need to think about it before i go for it.

Yeah, definitely not a super aggressive drop, but it's about as low as i want to go right now. Even with driving conservatively, I bottom out every once in a while when leaving parking lots and such.
Thanks a lot, that site is awesome!

I understand up front you want all the correct fitment, that makes sense. But for the rears I'd roll the fenders, and throw on spacers/negative camber. Nothing to crazy. I am new to fitment and my first set of wheels was ET17... It takes some work but not as much as I envisioned. I'd lower the fronts a teeny teeny bit too. Actually just lower all around a tiny bit.

Yeah ethan those are some sweet wheels. They sure cost a pretty penny too. I bottom out everywhere. Gonna try to make some skid plates to protect what little oil pan and s-pipe I have left.

Yeh.. Was going to go for the 17x8 et35 RPF1s after missing the last group buy, but I think I'm gonna jump on em this time.
I figure that if I'm going to be dropping 1k+ on a new wheel/tire setup, I might as well go big.

^Might have to be more specific, is there a certain wheel you're looking for? They(wheels and tires) can be bought off the net, local classifieds, the classifieds on here, connection through a local shop, a sponsor even. You just have to search for yourself to find the better deal, it's not exactly going to be a definite given.

I eventually want to end up with some Rota Grids. I was just asking for some good websites that I might know about. I have looked on tire rack, discount tire, and a bunch of other websites.

^For Rota wheels, Wheeldude is pretty much the place to get them online, don't know of any other place. Any other wheel the pricing can be found online for less than what a local wheel and tire retailer sells.

The 10s will poke 13mm more than the 9.5s. The inner clearance is a 1mm difference.

I had a question about my tire/wheel setup, I'm currently running H-techs and I want to get Rota G-force 18x9 35 offset. I will probably get coilovers later down the road but for now I wanted to know what is the widest tire I can fit without rubbing? I want to stay away from stretching, I don't think I need to since I am not that low. Will a 235/40 fit? 225/40? Please any input would be appreciated. Thanks.

Will these have any problems?

18x8.5 +39
18x9.5 +45

I'm most concerned about the inner clearance on the back. I'm on H-Techs.
