Also here's the tires I went with on Ebay (EdgeRacing.com was out of the 195/50's I wanted.) These also stretch on wide rims better than the newer 912 Falkens.

ok, well, ive got everything on the way
tein SS+P coilovers
sportmax 16x8 + 15 offset x5
& 195/50/16 x5
i just cant stand to see a nice car with nice rims and see a stupid donut tire on one side because they hade a flat.
i saved just under $100 going threw Next Level Motoring for the wheels
& saved about $30 going threw Discount Tire for the tires because they have free shipping.

all im missing now is some -3 rear camber shims.
yah, i finally talked my wife into it.
so any one know who on here makes a nice set?

 

One Ton Garage
Keoki
Evolved Concepts


...congrats, can't wait to see your setup.

 

You Shouldn' need camber shims....

Try it on before. The key to a good wheel set up is flushness

 

I cant wait until next weekend! Pop Dukes said he was going to buy me tires for my old rims for xmas. I stalled him and now I got my Sport Max sitting in his dinning room table waiting for my nice smelling new tires! Got to love my dad!

 

Can't wait to get my 501's. I just ordered them from NLM.

 

Yeh I have some nice smelling Falkens in my dining room too, wheels should be here and mounted on Thursday.

 

Mine should ship today.

 

i just got mine with some cheap but nice kumho's ended up being 740 shipped baby!

 

ok........up date.
i swoped out my 15mm rear hub spacer for my friends 10mm and installed my 16x8 +15 offset with 195/50/16.
i layed down the back seat and put all the old wheels and tires in the back, about 250 lb.
i had a 1 1/2 mile drive back home and this was the test.
it rubbed horrabley. i had my friend fallow me and he said he saw smoke a few times.
i got back home and took everything out of the back and i do mean EVERYTHING.
i took it for a spin around the block and it still rubbed.
so i took the hub spacer out all together and left everything out of the back, now it only rubs when i hit a realy hard bump.

BUT............ today is the day i install my coilovers so ill raise the back up a little and then ill be able to put my spair back in the back, i carry a full size matching spair.
when ever i get my camber ill lower it back down a bit.
i got -3 camber from keoki and he always seems to take a long time shipping me stuff.

 

oh crap, im sorry i forgot to show some pics
this is with nothing in the back and noone in the car

 

here are my 15X8s with S-tech drop and 195/50R15's (for that s t r e t c h e d look)




before the drop and flares

 

ok.... now ive got a question.
when you install flares do you alter the stock fender, besides to holes

 

no just bolt them in. just make sure you get a set and test fit and see where fiberglassing is needed for a true fit. they may be warped a tad but the bolts and 3M tape work just fine.

:edit:
they "fit"" to the fenders

 

Here are mine. Just got them installed last week.

 

What fenders are you talking about?? flares or stock???

 

that was in response to swartzautoman's question. yes fender flares

 

I'll have to post my pics soon... right now, I'm running 15x7 on all four corners, but I might have a good price on a pair of 15x8... so I might be running staggered soon... :D
