That had to have been answered in here already.
The tire will determine more whether or not you'll need to roll.

No problem, Steven. I know the the sticker bomb decal isn't for the everyone but it seems to be a hit with the younger crowd. Here's a a pic of it up close, hopefully it'll change your mind?



Portions of it is also on all 4 of my center caps.

It's just the kind of color that they are. It's called Neo Chrome.

The fogs are 6k morimotos from theretrofitsource.com

The switchbacks (turn signals) are 5k from eBay.

The LED DRL's is a kit that iJDMtoy.com sells, but I changed the bulbs out that the kit came with to 5k LED's from eBay. At the time I ordered my kit they only came with blue bulbs and I wanted white. Now when you order the kit it gives you the option to either choose white or blue bulbs.

Chromium Black looks best with NBP. Flat black is too blah and doesn't pop against the NBP paint and will look quite boring IMO. For no fender roll you are probably going to have to stick with the 18x8.75 +35 offset. As far as a camber kit it all depends on how low you plan to go. Rule of thumb is any drop of 2" or more you should get one.

Good shot, but it looks like your rears are lower than the fronts.

Hey guys, I'm about to pull da trigger on a set of 18x8.75 +20 all around, except I can't tell which tire size I should get. I'm currently on stock height but plan on lowering for da summer once I figure out which coil overs to go with, I'm trying to prevent rubbing and fender rolling if possible, any advice? It's either 225/40/18 or 235/40/18

you might have to roll fenders depending on your drop

I want a mock setup like this with staggered rims like this listing: 18x8.75 et 20 in the front, and 18x9.75 et 20 in the rear. https://acurazine.com/forums/car-parts-sale-361/stance-fitment-18s-xxr-530-black-chromium-nitto-neogens-18x8-75-9-75-a-879409/

But I am getting some body work done and he said I will not be able to roll my fenders because of the paint is going to be thicker and will probably chip. So should I get 8.75? How low can I go with this? I will probably never actually be stanced/flush....

coated.
