If you give a mouse a cookie......

This is definitely aggressive fitment for Grand Touring / Touring cars. STI is a rally car. Different class, different races, and different style...

1. If you look at any other forum's "aggressive fitment thread" you will see something gravely different than what's in here.

So,

1. If you're not on coilovers - you're not aggressive.

2. If you fenders are not at least rolled - you're not aggressive

3. If you have wheel gap- you're not aggressive

4. If you do not have wheel gap as a result of your meaty ass tire - you have meaty tires; you're not aggressive.

5. If you're above the minimum tire size requirement for your given wheel size - you're not aggressive. This is preventing you from being aggressive.

6. If your offset is not at least 10mm lower than your stock wheels - you're not aggressive.

With all of this said, all of you have very nice wheels. So all this is is a wheel thread. So most of you need to try again. Learn a few lessons from Pre- E46s

- An STi that dynos more torque on a stock turbo than any of you will N/A

I dont think its too tall

I'm not talking just an eyeball test, but actually staying within OEM spec rotating diameter. A 295/30/20 is absolutely way too tall.

Ahhh your talking 20's....... I'm running 19's. But why bother so much about the stock height, there are a stack of cars that don't on this forum, none of them have suddenly imploded. I've been running non spec heights for 5 years on my E90. I run non spec heights on my E36 M3 track car and I'm pretty sure I haven't died.

In short if it fits without rubbing and it meets with your aesthetic requirements who gives a shit about OEM.

Same Rotiform ROC wheels with a little suspension adjustment.

Purchased my m3 back in december. Currently looking to upgrade from the stock setup. Right now I have stock suspension w/ edc. Looking for a pretty aggressive setup without having to roll fenders, and with no rubbing.

Wheel specs:
19x9.5 ET22 front
19x11.0 ET25 rear

Tire specs:
265/30/19 front
295/30/19 rear

I will probably go with V12s, but would like to hear opinions. Trying to stay in a modest budget too.

Just wondering what I should expect with a setup like this. My goal is to eliminate the gaps as much as possible, but do not want to sacrifice any ride quality as this is my daily!

Appreciate any help, newbie when it comes to fitment. Learning on the fly.

This will fit without any issues. The good thing about the V12s is that the sidewall is not square and wide like some other tire brands out there, so no rubbing issues at all.

Any pics with 12.5 spacers running 255/35-19 F and 275/35-19 R?

I read it should be fine, but the rears could rub a little, but never found out how bad.

Looking for pics to see how it looks to save me putting spacers on and wheels in my crammed single car garage lol

[ARPHOTO]

Requesting pics of ET5 19x10 with 275/30R19 on rear axle. Please include what you're lowered on, if you're lowered. Thanks!

Bc racing coilovers extreme low
Bbs cir 19x9.5 et 22 19x10.5 et 35 with 15mm spacer.

[itsnotq]

Would a 19x12 with a 29 offset fit with slight camber and a 295/30 tire?

specs on wheels please, have been searching for rims but really debating 18" versus 19". Always had 19" before but your Volk's on an E90 are in 18" are exactly what I want.

Assuming both wheels you are comparing are the same width, some wheels have face designs that can interfere with the brake caliper so they might need a spacer.

Ahhh okay makes sense, thank you

[_.loso._]

Here is an update on my F30 on 18x9.5 +21 up front and 18x10.5 +21 in rear. Still a bit of poke but just need to dial in the suspension and camber kit a bit.
