Not rubbing so far. The rears tuck in with the camber, and the fronts are a bit higher, but look like they tuck a bit when compressed even though the rims stick out just a fraction.

Thanks Kev. The guy finally pulled off the trade with me. Offset is +45

this is the closest to a side view i have, but it's better than the others. When I take pix next, I'll take a side view.

Looks great man.... when you get the chance, can you please take some shots down the side of the vehicle so that I can see how much the wheel sticks out past the fender? I have the same style wheels in 18's (glossy black mesh w/ chrome lip), and didnt' go w/ 19's because I was afraid of rubbing. Your setup looks very close to flush, but i'm also dropped pretty aggressively.

^ yeah, they're a bit on the heavy side, but didn't "feel" 27 lbs when I was first looking at them. I shoulda put them on the scale to find out for sure.

I'll take the side fender pix for u when I get a chance. The rim itself is sticking just a tiny bit out, but the tread of the tire is almost flush. No rubbing issues so far.

Couple questions:

1. What suspension are you on.

2. How much were your wheels?

3. What tires are you on and how much?

That setup looks SICK BTW. I didn't know you could fit 19x8.5 on our cars. If i'm correct the offset on those wheels are +38....

^
1. Eibach Pro-Kit
2. Less than $300 per wheel including shipping.
3. Dunlop SP Sport Maxx. They go for about $189/tire, but I got them cheaper from a friend.

Thanks! Actually the offset is +45

No camber kit. The rear cambers in perfectly so no rubbing issues. The ride on these Dunlops is very nice compared to the 225 Toyo's I was previously riding on.

How low is your drop? How do you find the weight of the rims affecting your TSX? Sorry for the questions but I really like your set-up..

It's dropped on Eibach Pro-Kit springs. 1.6" in the front and 1.4" in the back, but the front stays a bit higher, presumably because I've got a 6mt. I don't really feel the weight of the rims affecting anything. They're not light, but they're not the heaviest either. If anything, the handling in turns and traction has vastly improved. Probably due to the sticky tires.
