That trunk spoiler has been tempting me for a while, seeing yours makes it a must have.
I'm on 8 months. I picked it up in May. I essentially did everything I planned when I bought the car minus wheels. I have my wheels decided on with some aggressive fitment 19x8.5 +35 and 19x9.5 +38 wheels but I won't release the brand/model yet.

...but I highly suggest this carbon fiber decklid. I got mine on ebay from Thailand. It was like $175 shipped and came in under a week. Great fitment too.

Are you stretch your fenders? we are both lowered and I rub under load with 19x8.5 and my offset is 45. If I am correct, you wil poke out just a few milimeters and rub very hard on the edge of fenders and quarters, unless you are doing negative camber.

Do you mean rolling the fenders? Not unless I have rubbing issues. I'm going to run stretched tires. Another member successfully did it.

If you are doing serious stretch then I guess it would work. I still rub in wheel well while under load and hitting a dip at speeds though.

Looks good.

I mean those aren't serious stretches by any means. My last car was 18x9.5 with a 225/40/18. No debeading and no issues whatsoever. That's actually a common tire size for x9.5 if you're looking for aggressive fitment. I daily drove it like that for 300+ miles a week year round.

Thanks! Another thing to consider for you is that the other guy who did it is on coilovers so he has more adjustability as far as height and damping to combat rubbing. You and I on the other hand have a pretty big drop and no way to make the shock retract less to combat the bounce that causes rubbing.

Yeah I know. I've been through it with previous cars. If I need to I'll upgrade to the custom spring rated BC coils I ran on my last car. I'm just trying to keep this ride feel if possible.

Awesome Be super careful when turning at speeds, if you hit any pot holes you will damage your fender. I have the same setup and it rubs with wheels turned when the suspension retracts. I have 235's though not sure if you went with 225's.

If he's on stock suspension he'll be fine with that setup. There should be no rubbing at stock height with 8.5 and ET45.

I'm on 225/35 so I should be alright. Are you on Super Sports? They are a little stiffer than the sports.

I'm on H+R Super Sports.

Yeah we have the same setup. Only difference is 235/35 vs 225/35. They definitely are stiffer.
