We'd recommend for you to measure the clearance that you have between the outer edge of the tires and inner edge of the the fenders to see how large of a spacer you can fit to bring the wheel out more flush with the fender.

Looks great 2000max, what are your wheel and tire specifications? It'd be great if you can share that with us.

We do have 19" versions of the PS-7's and EC-7's currently. The 19" ARC-8's are on their way, due for arrival in September of this year.

Here are some images of the PS-7's if anyone is considering them. I'll have to get some better shots later. I'm very happy with them.

Hope these help.





The front wheels/tires stick out from the fender maybe 1-2 mm. I really didn't want to put on the 5 mm spacer but when the tires were balanced they placed a weight on the inner lip. This hit the strut. I think I will try a 3 mm spacer when I put them on next time. The rears are good, but could be out a bit more ~ 1-2 mm but not sure a small spacer will fit on the rear. Not a lot of hub length on the rear for small spacers.

Thanks! That's exactly what I was looking for. I think I might have to upgrade the fronts to 9.5 because of that concavity!

That's what I did as well. Didn't like the look of 8.5 fronts with 9.5 fronts.

The EC7 dropped about 50lbs from the 162's. Yes, it's noticeable. Quicker to spin up, quicker to stop. Took me a little while to not instinctively stop well short of what I was used to.

On LCI E90's, you would need to roll the rear fenders with Michelin PSS, or it would rub when the suspension fully compresses in the rear when you go over large bumps, or have a full car. If you want to avoid fender rolling, downsizing to the 255/35/18 would be another option.
