Very sorry abut that, but we are focusing more on our current CV line and our upcoming Forged Precision Series. Hopefully we can interest you in our upcoming releases once they launch.

I need help. I'm liking the CV5 Graphite square look... 20X10.5 +25 all around but I do not want to roll fenders or trim rear bracket, what tire size should I run? Can I get away with 265s? I am not lowered yet but I will be getting coilovers.

Rear trimming yes. 275/30/20 Falken 452s are a nice fit. Other brands sit too aggressive. 265/30 are rare sizes and very expensive. 255/35 also a good choice. I have 255/30/20s.

+25 is not recommended because of the adjustments needed to make it work. My friend used Falkens and I have used them on my +25 rears and sit very nice but with the bracket trimming and fender liner being cut.

Thanks guys. Here is another video. As for dyno numbers, I do not have any. The dyno was free at a carshow and they claimed there dyno was not reading accurately so I did not even get a printout. Numbers are unknown. my only mods are Intakes and my Catback exhaust. I honestly don't care to see numbers, just a cool experience. Regardless I will be installing my RHFC soon and going straight to HP Logic to get my UPREV done, so before and after will be documented.

I am a noob and I just picked up a brand new set of VVS083. There was a local warehouse just looking to clear them out. I went w 19's because I didn't want to run into fitment/rubbing issues and I didn't want to make any modifications to suspension or anything. Plus I live in Chicago, and at times it can be a minefield of potholes.

Now begins my search for tires and I'm looking for suggestions on size, performance, and brand. This car is basically only used in the summer for commuting and leisure. I don't get too aggressive it (although I do like to punch it from time to time). I want as much performance and aggressive (wide) look as I can get without affecting comfort. My car is basically stock. I have the journey coupe model which currently has stock 18's.

The wheels I bought are the VVS083. Fronts are 19X8.5 with a +32mm offset. Rears are 19X10 with a +38mm offset.

What do the experienced pros out there suggest??

Congrats on your new wheels. Recommended sizes are front 245/40/19 and rear 275/35/19. I am a big fan of Nitto NT555. Tire Rack will give you more options with other brands in those sizes.
