I'm not sure what the offsets are on your old Cv1, but I believe you were also running spacers cause the wheels to be pushed out even more = more aggressive. Being that you are still running 30 series tires front and rear, I doubt ride quality will increase by much, but you definitely will have more rubber on the road and far less stretch causing slightly more tire height.

Eitherway, wheels look pretty good in matte silver on your black G.
Thanks bro, yeah man the cv1 on rauls G looks awesome. I love the cv1. They are my favorite, but new is always better IMO lol .. I love the silver but I wanna try a new gunmetal that I have in mind. I'm still thinking of it.

Doing gunmetal wheel, painting the lights with black housing and the projector holder gunmetal, getting back the splitter and tanabe medallion mufflers.

As for ride quality , me going from 285 to 275 to 255 I've noticed one thing mainly and it's the handling , what I did notice as of last week after my alignment was done was how the ride got after the damn spacers , I think spacers were the problem cause my 235/255 to me rides fine, You know me I always preferred more meat on rears and after I burn these 255s off I'm taking my 5 spacers off and going back to 245/275 w 20/25 offsets .
My ride was fine but after my spacers I immediately noticed crazy Vibration at 45mph , looks real good and I love it but def want more meat on F+R. another thing that may play a huge part I'n ride quality is those dam S techs ...

Keep this i'n mind also.

235/255 Stretched

+5/20 offsets after front 15mm spacers and 5mm rear

Tein S techs w G35 spring rates w uneven drop.

All^^^ these things are the reason for a ****y ride ... I'm sure the 245/275 gave a little more comfort though.

+1^^ For sure having more tire on the road tyou will get better performance on the road. Now its all about either you want the stretch look or the performance.

Thats Why I dont do spacers, I told you dont do it many many times but you dont listen

We're already getting decent offsets 20/25 without using spacers why in the world would you want more aggressive? If the offsets were weak sauce on the wheels than yes spacers are a must but in this case is not necessary

Yes fool but I ain't no *****, so more aggressive it is .... Like I said I love it and sustitute ride quality for a flush setup is a great temporary thing, like I said I will eventually go back to 245/275 but pointless to run streched w out going aggressive other wise I would had ran normal tires ...

It's all good , Wanna experience diff set-up to know what's best so now I can be a better Judge and advise others i'n the Future... Not shaky shaky tht bad Jay but def prefer not running spacers cause you can't use Hub Rings w spacers wich was my biggest concern and it's temporary so no bigge , def a great look though , I hope Vossen Releases 15/20 offsets for the Stretch tire guys.... O Yeah SUCK THIS 8------->

I think the 15/20 offset is a great FN look it's now perfectly flush and WOW a small 5mm diff is awesome , Jav should release a 15/20 that way he will have

20/25 semi aggressive

15/20 Aggressive

10/15 for Super aggresive.... A +15 rear would be Sick w 255/30/20 especially not needing spacers...

Lol.. IMO 245/275 +20/25 FTW. After experiencing countless setups from 305-255 tires and from +35 offset to +5 in the front ... This is my fav set up of all.

It's simple, clean, aggressive and comfortable.

Thanks for all the comments guys I'm glad u like it.

Why is it that Vossen only runs a 9 wheel in the front? I never understood what they don't use 9.5. Wouldn't they be able to get more lip or more concave depending what wheel model and design it is?
