Brian, I just remembered at one point you said you didnt like 19's for some reason. (i think it was some kind of ratio) What was it and why doesnt it apply here?

You sir are correct. I don't like 19s since they require the 35 series tire (technically they don't require it, but a 40 series would just be too big). I was fed up with the roads and the increased possibility of bending wheels. But since these wheels are forged, I decided to go back to 19s since they are quite strong. There's also 18s being too small for my taste.

picking your brain on this one...

19x8.5, +36, with 235/35/19 all around. drop height is a tad higher (or maybe the same) than yours, rear fenders will be rolled next week, and no camber kit. any forseeable rubbing/slice issue by adding 10mm spacers in the front, and 15mm spacers in the rear?

thanks.

Effective 19x8.5 +26, 19x8.5 +21.

I would do 225/35 up front and 235/35 in the rear. A 215/35 would give you MUCH more clearance with almost no chance of rubbing on incline/decline turns but that depends on whether you're willing to run a narrow tire. (It's not that much of a stretch).

What kind of exhaust is that? Or are those just tips?

Just went through this whole thread and I must say I haven't posted in any of your threads, but I have been following since orange TE37s and I must say all of your wheel choices are great. Bump for some originality ..

Oh and that concave is
