Tenzo Type M Ver. 1 on NBP with Goodyear Eagle F1

So I got them on but had to put spacers on the front. Was worth it! I have some ET lugs on the way to help center the front wheels. Yes I know I need to drop it, it will happen soon. Let me know what you think!

Sorry, was to excited posting pics. 19 x 8.5 x 45. So the 45 offset though hits my front brakes, that is why I had to do the spacers. 5mm, ill try to take a pic of the clearance.
Thanks guys, appreciate the feedback!

Also any idea how much I should lower it? I don't want to slam it but want it to look clean.

I don't like how spokes stick out past the lip of the wheels.

Yea I guess it is just a preference, I was going for something like that, I think it looks more aggressive but not for everyone I guess.

That is true, I probably want to do springs for 6 months then make the plunge into coilovers. Do you have them? Ever had an issue with keeping all sides the same height or pretty simple to adjust?

Looking good, I just got my new wheels (19x8.5) not too long ago and dropped it on some Tein S-Techs I'm very satisfied with the way my car looks and feels. Maybe later on I will get coilovers but for now the springs will do for me.

I did the Eibach springs and I love the way it looks plus I don't rub on curbs or speed bumps which is nice.
I used 5 mm spacers but have had issues. They do not make hub centric spacers that are 5mm and since the wheels are meant for that, I have had issues with the car shaking at certain speeds. So I am doing it right and just got 10 mm hub centric spacers. I also had to purchase new bolts that will replace my old ones since they are too short. I should hopefully get those on soon but I think it will look odd with the fronts spaced out 10 mm and the backs stock, so I might have to do the backs as well.
