Uhhh how does he not rub like that? The rear fender is like literally sitting on top of the tire. That is ridiculous poke! If he wants that low offsets, tell him to jump in with the E60 goodness

I gave out my specs for the wheels, not many people will do that for a stance. Even the wheel companies wont release the offsets. Its like this black magic shit that everyone wants to keep secret because its so hard and expensive to get right, they dont want someone else getting it right the first time. That's BS. Everyone should know how to do it, and if they try it they just might like it.
Not a fan of the streched look but I do look forward to seeing the end result.

well no they fit quite well actually, they do not hit the coilovers and they sit exactly how i wanted them to sit, put the factory spec'd camber and it will look perfect
im not stretching because i ABSOLUTELY have to otherwise the tires wont fit, i can put a 275/30/20 in the rear and a 235-245/30 in the front if i really wanted to
the point is i like the stretched look and i like wide wheels
is this going to be another thread where you try to bash?

I like the slammed look. I saw PJ's ride in So Cal this week and it looks sooo much better sitting lower on the coilovers than it did sitting higher without them. But I can't do that here in the Big Apple.

Yeah a setup that slammed would last about an hour on the torn up streets of NYC. Just 2 weeks ago the FDR Drive claimed yet another one pf my tires. One of my front OEM Contis bubbled after I hit a big pothole. Fortunately, the fronts only had about 2-3k miles of tread left so I swapped out both fronts for the outstanding Hankook Ventus V12 Evo summer performance tires --- which are better than the Contis and half the money.
