[quote name='TYSON' date='Jul 13 2005, 03:25 PM']....This fitment is supposed to work all the way around, especially with the smaller spring diameter and higher spring rate of coilovers...

even with larger spring diameter... itll clear.. no concern for the tie rod either..

depending on your front sidewall height.. and your height settings.. you might come across fender clearance issues..

imho.. depending on your application.. the fronts maybe too tall and wide...

pm me if you wanna discuss further tyson.. heres a pic of 18x9s at the track during hard cornering with passenger..

Yeah that worried me too. The decals and the boxes said 5X114.3, so I broke out the calipers to measure. Maybe they forgot to change the tooling?

you have shaved toyo RA1s? wow... going to be quick car. Why 18s? 18" Rs are uber pricey. Plus you will be getting a lot of brake dust on those bling wheels.

Not these 18s! You gotta know where (and when) to shop!



I got some of that Michelin anti brake dust stuff from Canadian Tire, but yeah, I'll be cleaning them a lot! Gotta last a long, long time.

Tire Rack closeout special, it's the rear fitment for FDs.

Sweet ****. I ran the same setup on stock suspension. 265/35/18's.



Silver looks great on those wheels.
