I'm going to run 18x10 In the front and 10.5 in the rear with 15 adapters all around I'm pretty sure I'll need a roll/slight pull in the front I'll post pics of the mock up

I'm doing 10's in the front and 12's in the rear, so fender work is gonna be a definite for me. I know there's a lot of other guys out there running 12's in the rear, I wanted to know if they got away with just a really aggressive roll, or if they went with full blown cutting/shaving the rear fenders.

Thanks! That pretty much answers my question. I'm honestly looking to go fender to lip, so I guess i'll just start with a roll and see where I wind up. I wanna keep the factory lines of the fenders though, and it seems like most of the e9x's I've seen with rolled rears looked almost 'pulled' slightly.. |

As for your other comment, I have noticed that most of the e9xs seem to look like they have body work done in the rear when aired out. For mine in particular...my fenders do push out a little when air out in rear to go over the rear tires...so it looks like I had fender work (widebody) done. Like in this pic

Now of course keep in mind your tires will also play a part in this. I'm using Goodyear tires, and those bad boys are a little wider...so my 225 fits like a 235 and my 255 fits like a 265. If I'm making sense. So I don't really have a lot of stretch.

Hi everyone, I'm looking to piece together my own air setup soon and I wanted to know if it was possible to rather than do a bags-over-coil on my current coilovers, I could replace the springs on the front struts with bags. (I'm on Ksport Kontrol Pros if that makes a difference)

Mine is pretty much what your describe though: shaved flat lip that COULD cut tyre - but never had in my case. Need to get it rolled as you say. Currently forming a lip of about 8mm length, but want to get it rolled so it's half that (or less if possible!)

The only time mine cut the tires was when I was driving around at a show aired out a little too much. It's only the left side though. |
