There are people on here running a lot of poke, and there are also people on here that run some more conservative widths/offsets. I think people are going to begin differentiating their cars by moving away from the same wheels that everyone else runs (we all know what they are) and onto companies and designs that are different. But again, that's just my opinion and the route that I'm taking.

That said, I think I have finalized what my final offsets and tire choices will be.

R: 20x11 et 15 w/ 255/35/20 Nitto NT555
F: 20x9.5 et -5 w/ 225/30/20 Falken FK452 (Great tire for stretching).

Just got the car down on the BC coils, the rear will be coming down and the front will probably be raised about an inch and a half from where it is (I just said **** it and installed them all the way down just to see haha). Wheels are getting refinished with a matte grey center and all lips/barrels are getting rechromed.

^^^def think this setup is going to be way too much poke and you're going to have to run too much camber.

I can almost bet 255/35/20 is too large for 11 +15. Unless u run like masssssssssive camber

yup, the trick is ride height (and camber kits of course). I'm at -2.1 rear camber and no rubbing whatsoever with my current setup Negative camber looks good but buying new tires every 6months is overkill

Hell. ****ing. Yes.

That's the best looking ride I've seen in this thread I think. The rears will work, like I said, I'm cool with running a lot of camber. From my other car and previous cars I'm used to running through tires a little bit faster than most people haha. I'm more so worried about the front though, my specs are going to be 22mm more aggressive than that guy, and while it seems like his wheels aren't perfectly flush, another inch of spacing will definitely cause some problems with the front that will need to be sorted out.

im gonna try to start eliminating wheels based on two pics where we cant tell who made them. they are a design that HRE uses but those are not HRE center caps. My second thought was IForged or DPE but their center caps dont look like that. now VIP Modular's center caps are that size but they don't make that wheel.

And as for the stretch, these are my first set of stretched tires. The front is a nice looking stretch. The rears dont seem as stretched, I think it's because it's a 30 sidewall not a 35 so there isn't as much to stretch
