So of course I got them mounted. Before I put them on, I dropped one of the wheels in the shop. Wheels mounted and leaving the shop, hit a damn curb when backing out. FML

I wanted a really flush look without stretching tires too much so I went with 8.75 all around plus an 8mm spacer in the rear. Pics are crappy but I will try to get some decent ones once my car comes out of construction. Yes, I know I need tire shine 
but the car is going to the body shop soon

Question for Vlad...
First off, your car looks amazing. Did you end up going 8.75" up front, or did you just go 9.75" all around?

Vlad, I'm as low as you right now with 18x8 +20 and 215/40/18 tires up front and maxed out Skunk2 camber kits....as is I'm REAL close to the fenders, but I only rub when the wheels are turned and I'm pulling in a steep driveway. Going 9.75 +20 with a 225 tire scares me...I'm thinking 8.75 up front is safer, but I'm curious what fender work you've done up front since you say you don't have much rubbing. My front fenders aren't rolled....the lip on the front fenders is already so thin there's barely anything to roll to begin with...you just have to cut off that tab where the fender meets the bumper.

This is all dependent on how low you want to be be. I am running an 8mm spacer in the rear with 225 so you can get away with 235. For the front, once again it is all dependent on how low you want to go. Why not 225? I am running achilles ATR sport tires. I have read lots of good things about them and decided to try. I am very much impressed with them so far and for $315 shipped to my door it was a no brainer.
