YUP! I just made the switch to air ride and couldn't be happier. The wheels indeed were @Hai_Cheo wheels. Mine now though

Thinking of running 19x10 +20 and 19x11.5 +16...

Am I going to have to run stretch to get these to fit? If so, what sized tires would you recommend?

I'm lowered on swift springs/EDC and another part of me is thinking that I'm not even low enough to pull off this aggressive set up

What kind of options do you guys think I can run with work vsxx wheels 19x9.5 +19 and 19x10.5+19. I plan on going lower haven't decided with what suspension. But I'd like to go the widest possible without rubbing.

These cars have wider fenders then a lot of people realize. On that set up you can run a 265/295 setup and be pretty low easily. Im basically tucking a 19x11 +25 with a 295/30, Im on V12s which people say run more narrow than something like a MPSS.

I think on these cars you can get into the single digit offsets and still be ok with the right tire and camber set up, especially in the rear.

It will be close even with -3 degrees up front, especially with a MPSS, if you're stuck on running those I would try a 265/30 first.

I persoanlly don't really like springs so I would upgrade to a coilover.

I think with the right tire and camber set up you could make that fit. There is a guy on here that runs a 275/305 setup and he is just on springs but his set up isn't quite as aggressive, I think his are 19x9.5/11 with low 20s offset. Just to be safe I would get a tire like the Hankook in a 265/295 set up and see how it looks, won't be stretched really but will have some poke.

I agree with j2nicee, wheels won't be a problem (I ran a 19x9.5 ET2 up front) but the PSS tires tend to run wide and a 275 up front might be pushing it.

Thanks. I think I'd rather do a 255/35/19 than a 265/30/19. The 265/30 is 1/2" smaller than OEM already.

The 275/30/19 is actually already 1/4" smaller than the OEM tire already. I want to stay as close to OEM spec as possible. Would rather go larger than smaller in all fairness.

Thanks for the insight though!

Hmm, alright. Guess we'll find out, hopefully it fits, will report back! Should be mounted within the next 2/3 weeks or so, just wiating for the wheels to arrive!

What size tires? I assume 275/35/18? How much camber?

What's the offset on these?

A 255/35 is a taller tire than a 265/30 and WILL rub. You can try the 275/30 but something like a MPSS will rub more than likely unless you don't drop the car much at all and you will have to run a good bit of camber.

My advice is to go with what others have had success with previously, if you go away from that route then plan on doing extra work to make them fit and not look horrible.
