As long as the offsets are right you can even lower it with the 19's and still not rub.

This is what they are:
Fronts: 19x9 5x120 ET35
Rears: 19x10 5x120 ET38

No worries of rubbing!? Happy about that. Also got my shipping notification for my splitters!

Nope those are standard offsets for it meaning they'll fit no problem without modifications

Avant Garde M359 perhaps???

You can run a 245 in front and 275 in rear with that setup. If your going to lower it you may need more negative camber or a narrower tire.

By any chance do any of you guys own an exhaust cutting tool i can borrow? I want to stay away from lifting the car high to get my saws-all to fit under there...

Ahhh very nice man. I loved the evo but that thing was no where near daily drivable. I've loved the 335 since I've owned it. I mean, obviously considering my above post.

You guys recommend a brand of tire? I don't think I'll do run flats again.

There are many to choose from and I really like the Continental DW for its excellent road manners. Not saying the others are bad but the DW has the best ride to them.

Shon · 04-24-2013, 08:13 AM

Michelin SSP. The best tires I ever had. Heard so many good things about Continental DWs though.

The DW is a summer only tire just as the PSS. The DWS is an ultra high performance all season tire.

For sure! We can meet up and hear each others exhausts. I've been wanting to hear yours for a bit. (sounds a bit awkward...)

I was looking at those. I like that they're around $200 each My run flats are the PSS and paid around $1600 for four new ones. Don't think I'll do that again.

I may sneak through. I have a work thing at 6PM but will be finishing up right around then. Car isn't washed so... gonna look kinda shitty, but what can you do.

That and the exhaust isn't on yeeeeet.

Shon · 04-24-2013, 03:19 PM

Hopefully I'll get my front lip today so I don't have to come to the meet with a white bumper and no grills lol
