Felt no need to lower car since the wheels fill out the fender gap very nice with this setup.
Thanks for the info!

Yeah the wheel gap looks great... But if you wanted do you think you have the room for a mild drop? I like the setup but I'm dropped on swift springs and want to try and avoid excess rubbing.

275 does not look good but I would not go so far as to say this setup is horrid looking. But then I despise stretch
Seems the brand wheel/tire combo makes a huge difference, I had the same stretch you have with a 275 as I did with a 295. Took 315 to get it totally flush on my klassens, some of the guys above seem to be having better results with 295 than I did by far.

Mmm... with this combo im not sure if a drop would work, since a little liner needed to be trimmed with it stock. Its pretty tight, if it had more offset you would be able to though. I just didnt want to special order the volks since you can get em for a steal used.

Some very nice set ups here. I'm assuming with all of these after-market set ups, the car's tire pressure monitor system is no longer usable? Are there any error message display because of this or it's just not "on".

I had a set of apex wheels with the tire pressure sensors installed and the system worked fine. I unfortunately had the chance to test it when I ran over a nail...

Still running TPMS on mine. The valvestem is a hybrid of the TE37SL included unit (partly red) on top of the factory TPMS sensor.

If you don't have TPMS, the error will remain on unless coded out. You can also put all the sensors in a pressurized container and leave them in the car.

You can move your factory TPMS over or buy another set for your aftermarket rims. Works the same.

My set up: 20x11 on 305/25 Pirelli's

Tbone28, what suspension/springs are you running, because that drop is nuts? Also, is that Interlagos or LeMans blue, that stance is sick?

no i thought the width and better tire would help but they still spin /lose traction 1-3, although they do grip better than the ps2 265/40s

Just needs something grippier than a PSS or RE11 One of the many 200TW tires would do very well. I can only spin at the very top of 1st and no spinning on gear changes.

Check your tire pressure... I'm able to hook okay in the summer on stock PS2's 245/265 zcps. I do have solid sub-frame/diff bushings which also make a substantial difference...
