I will be joining you guys in the 5zigen club. I just picked up 18x7.5 et35 Sport Engine's w/225/40 tires. I'm dropped on S-techs/tokico's, hopfully I don't rub.

Nice wheels, guys!

Nice wheels, guys!

You'll probably rub in the rear. Your S-Techs are about the same drop as my Hotchkis in the rear, 2". I have 18x7.5 et35 with 225/40 also. I rub on big dips, and with people in the back.

Only in the rear? I expected to rub in the front because its lower in the front and more flush than the rear. But if the rubbing is minimal - I can work around it.

I didn't comment on the front, because the S-Techs are like a half inch lower in the front than on mine. So it could rub haha. I was just commenting on the rear, because our setups are similar. And it is minimal rubbing, not too bad.

Re: Post Your 5-Zigen Wheels!

^ Yes. But that's my opinion. I don't like any wheel gap at all. It's about preference. If you don't want any wheel gap on 17s and will be buying springs, buy s-techs. Lowest you can go on springs. Even then you will still have a little gap.
