My Ride: FOR STARTERS I LOWERED THE CAR USING H&R SPRINGS. I CHANGED THE EMBLEMS TO BLACK AND CARBONFIBER ALSO ADDED CARBON FIBER DOOR SILL COVERS. I PUT ON A SET OF 22X9 - 22X10.5 AZA FORGED MYSTIC 2TONE BLACK AND MACHINED WRAPPED IN PIRELLI P ZERO NERO 245/30/22 AND 285/25/22. AC SCHNITZER REAR TRUNK SPOLER. ZENETTI BODY KIT CONSISTING OF A FRONT LIP, SIDE SKIRTS AND REAR APRON. RECENTLY ADDED 12INCH ANNIVERSERY EDITION JL SUB POWERED BY A JL 500X1 AMP IN A CUSTOM ENCLOSURE WRAPPED IN CARBON AND AUBURN VINLY WITH PLEXI. AUXILARY INPUT WITH IPOD ADAPTER.

the 21's will fit for sure the tire size's is the kicker. everyone said my 22's wouldnt fit and as you all have seen my car is lowered with 22's. 255/30 and 295/25 will fit but you will have to roll the fenders front and back. 245/35 and 285/30 will fit better though also i would run the pirellis cause they usually have a more rounded sidewall for better fitment, the overall height is the exact same as my 22's but you still will have to roll the fenders front and back. the offset of the wheels are fine so you should be ok on that end. goodluck on your decision and id liked to see how it comes out.

There you go. Straight from the source. One of the few brave enough to ride on 22" wheels with rubber bands for tires. I still can't believe he was able to do the Saratoga drive at the last Bay Area Meet!

thank on your input.. now that i know they'll fit i'll have to do more extensive reaserch on tires.. i cant seem to find 245/35 and 285/30 in 21" very odd because they obviously have them in 22" for you.. i still have to plan this out but im really ancy on going with 21's im crossing my fingers it looks good. final outcome would be blk 530, mtech kit and wing.. lowerd on 21" 128's.. sounds good but we'll see. my next post on this thread will be pics of the car done with the wheels i went with.. stay tuned for the pics thanks for all of your posts.
