For those of you running Tein Basis- what wheels look decent w/o spacers?

I recently installed a set of Tein Basis coilovers on my '13 Sedan and I am planning on running TSW Interlagos 18" or 19" with 245 in front and 275 in the rear. I am hoping this will look ok without spacers. Just wondering what some of you are running and what ride height you have the suspension set/alignment set up. Any pics would be awesome. Thanks!

On your lowered G I'd run a 8.5 +30 to +35 on 245/45/18 or 245/40/19 front
and 10 +45 on 285/40/18 or 285/35/19 rear, if you want 275s in back you can run a 10" +40
Here's my setup on 8.5 +40 w/ 245s and 10" +45 on 285s (was running 295s and still has a couple mm inside the fender) these are 20s but still them same fit at the fender as 18s or 19s w/ the tire sizes I listed




Here's the 295s in back

Thanks for the pics, that helps a lot. The car looks good! I did not realize we had quite so much room under these fenders. Are you running Tein Basis too? What height and alignment settings do you have?

No, I'm running Megan LP Street coils and am running 26.25" F & R and camber close to -1.0 F&R.
Thanks for the kind words too

Slight change of plans. I really like the WedsSport SA10R Zebra Black Clear in 18x8.5 35mm and 18x9.5 38mm. I would still run 245's up front and 275's out back.



Also considering the Forgestar F14 in 18x9 and 18x10 and I can pick the offset as well as about a zillion different finishes. Leaning toward a polished (almost like chrome) or brushed (raw metal) finish with dark gray or black on the insides of the spokes.



Thoughts?

Glad you guys like the WedsSport rims as much as I do. Now I just need to save up the money to get them with some sticky tires

I am lowered 1.5-2" and +25 and 8.5 all around if perfectly flush without rubbing issues.

9.5 +35 will be similar at the fender and depending on wheel design may allow a more concave face (if you're wanting that).
