Zenneti aluminum wheels with Falken ZE512 235/45/z18 8.5 front 265/45/z18 9.5 rear with 25mm spacers up front. Stance GR coilovers. A little bit of rubbing when turning too sharp, but otherwise fit fine.

:icon_tup: nice... you gotta little micro stretch going on their in the rear. could use some spacers in the rear and a 1"drop ... when i first saw this i thought they were 17s!!!
Stretch...you mean that thing under the rear trim piece? I know. If not that, elaborate? :) and I don't know if I want to drop it anymore, the coilevers dropped it a fair amount already; I think the pic makes it look like it sits higher than it does. |
I think the big wheels don't look bad, but not at the cost of the stretched rubber.. I don't mind rubber thats flat with the wheel, and I prefer a little overhang, but stretched rubber smaller than the wheel just looks out of place.
Now, the reason for the stretched rubber is clearance, correct? |
18's on stock body looks goofy.
18's need aero and low. lots of low. and flush. like so. https://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g...ing/rx7065.jpg or like so. http://www.dorimon.com/fc3s/fc00042.jpg http://www.dorimon.com/fc3s/fc00043.jpg someone buy my 18's. |

I.E.- you have 265/45/18 on a 9.5 a good stretch would be 235-245/45-55(depending on sidewall compound)/18 picts.. modern stretch - https://img244.imageshack.us/img244/...3111586xx6.jpg https://img.photobucket.com/albums/v...JDMPBEFORE.jpg insane stretch - https://i92.photobucket.com/albums/l...conv001614.jpg https://img.photobucket.com/albums/v...mikessr121.jpg |

Everyone whines about ricers... haha.. You all drive a f***** japanese rice-cooker with a 1.3L turbo engine! :rlaugh:
Anyway.. I dont think 18" rims looks too bad on a stock car. Here is my car with unknown brand 18x9.. and i think the offset 35mm so im running 25mm spacers on all four wheels :) I havnt lowered it enaugh yet and the camber in front isnt correct either.. http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a10...g?t=1191865636 |

yea i love the look of 18 on it...makes the car. couldnt load pic but my car is my avater and there 225/35/18..+45 which is no good. gotta take off rear hubs and press longer studs to put spacer but front are flush..i got the tanabe gf210 on apexi adjustables.. i can take more if ya want
|
^^ i know what you mean. i have to roll my front fenders.
|
I dont like the look of rolled fenders on the FC.. Boostinmys5 got some really nice rear fenders, and he says that they are rolled, but i dont belive him haha. Dont understand how he can get a so nice and sharp edge without doing more than just rolling..

...avatars dont count, but i can imagine... ok no i cant... i needz picts |
i do have spacers on the car because the rims came off of an fd, when i say roll the fenders i mean just get rid of the sharp lip on the inner fender to keep a stock look to the fender.
