Re: New Rims with Rubber!!!
does it look liek theyll rub at all if lowered... ? whats the offset? and would a 16x8 work?? i might can get some Volk 16x8 ce38n in silver new for $400 each.
Re: New Rims with Rubber!!!
It rubs, but only when I go in and out of driveways that have very steep angles to them. I don't plan on rolling the fenders or anything, just raising the car accordingly.
16x8 should work I guess. I'm not sure. These rim and tire combo was a gamble for me, and it worked out. The offset on these are +36.

Re: New Rims with Rubber!!!
Advice.... just because I know... be extremely mindful of your rear toe setting, especially with very sticky tires... it will move with suspension travel, and you can (I've done it) run the rim into the control arm. Getting the necessary clearance is a function of camber, toe and ride height, but if you can't get a finger in between the arm and the rim, try and find more room.

Thanks for the heads up. I'll definitely work with the alignment guy on it.
Btw does anyone know of a custom alignment shop in San Jose? I'm looking for the old school, none of this laser computerized dip spit. Pm me thanks.
