Agressive wheel and tire fitments - let's see 'em!

My wife has a bend in one of her '08 tl-s wheels, so I'm thinking of getting some volks in 17x9.5, and low offset concave face.

Like the topic says; lets see wide wheels, low offsets, and agressive rubber!

Now that I think of it, we don't actually have an aggressive wheel thread...

Good idea, so for those of you who post, nothing short of flush!

Haha, that's exactly what I was thinking. As I was posting I told myself wow, some people must have seen my photos like 5 times already in different threads. But people are always joining AZ and don't even know what 'aggressive fitment' is...

the nice thing about a thread rather than a google search is that you were nice enough to post specs.

I just picked up a NBP TL and was google searching wheels and sizes for them. lots of stuff comes up but not much details the wheel specs.

btw, great TL. Love the black grill, and the visors.

Any modifications to the fenders? Do you rub at all? And what suspension?

yup 18x9.5 all around, i got them from wheel dude. This offset is originally meant for 350z fitment..haha. Front fenders have been untouched and rears are slightly rolled. I'm pretty low so there is natural camber. I'm on tien basic coilovers.

I rub in the rear over bumps and dips but its not too horrible imo. you NEED stretched tires if you dont want to rub the shit out of your fenders.

Work varianza's: 225/35 on the 9.5, 235/35 on the 10.5
Volk CE28Ns: 215/35 on the 8.5, 245/35 on the 10.5
Volk TE37s: 225/40 all around on the 9.5s
HREs: 215/40s on the 8.5, 225/40s on the 9.5
No camber kits anywhere, rears rolled and slightly pulled.

And if you're going to stretch, do NOT go with good years.
Go with falkens, dunlops and nankangs.

there is no modification to the fenders besides the slight roll in the back? What tires are you running? What's your camber in the rear? I know you said natural camber but what is it, you much know if you got an alignment
