my new wheels

Okay as promised on another thread I would post pics of my new wheels. They are Avant Garde m328 19's. Here you go.

Also I need to input on springs as I am getting ready to order them. I am wanting an aggressive drop so HR SS would be my option besides coils, but I read on another thread that my tire size 265/30's would cause it to rub. Has anyone here used the same tire size with SS w/ no problem?

That's what I read that most people would either use 255's to get minimal rubbing, but I was just making sure cause the statements were from only 1 or 2 people from here...I just wanted to get another opinion.

Love your car btw Spec!

Where in NJ are you from? Im flip myself and actually was livin in jerzee up until just 2 years ago.

I have SS and it's not nearly slammed lol. There is just no wheel gap. But i wish it was lower so the tires would tuck.

So super sports it is. Last question for you regarding the SS, will it rub if I have passengers in the vehicle?

@ Spec, I used to live in Edison then Lawrenceville for about 1.5 years before moving out here to Houston

Definately will rub when you have a 100+ lb load at the rear with SS.

I wouldn't go 265/30/19 with SS...

I originally ran 19x10 265/30/19 with supersports. Rear rubbed like crazy on dips. Stretched 245 and everything is okay, even with 3 passengers in back. Probably gonna try and do 235 on my rears next.

will 265/30's be fine with either Eibach or HR Sports? I'm ready to order and found a shop to do the install with reasonable charge.
