before you even worry about all that, get coils. you will never achieve hellafushiness or whatever on s-techs

Wait... you wanna be herrafrush with stock tires and rims? 1. you'll never do it on s-techs and 2. we'd need to know what rims you have.

Im torn between 17s and 18s due to the fact that my FF type 2s may give me a fender to tire gap with a stretched tire..I love the look it has now, just wish I could push out more (rolling on stocks)
Go as wide as you can with a low offset. I promise you - you will need it. If you go with a 17x9 +42 you'll need spacers. Even with the 18x9.5 +38 you'll need spacers in the rear but the front will be flush.

They are miro 111. Only wheel company sells wheels that are concave with that style I like. Would love to get the linea corse 19 x 11 cuz they have a hella concave look but they are 19s.

Look at x_batman_x's thread. I'm pretty sure he was trying to or did get flush on stockies. Been lookin at some spacers for the rears myself.

Which coilovers have you ran? The reason I have a bit of a bounce on my B&G coilovers is that I requested increased spring rates(8K front, 10K rear), they only had the front springs available. Currently on 8K for the front without getting the dampers revalved because they said the damper could handle a +/- 2K spring rate change, well I don't think it's doing it as well as I thought they would. I havent checked on the preload since i've had them installed so i might adjust that before going to the 6K springs they usually come with. The rears are 8K and are perfect. I think it's your coilover selection that you need to research on.

^ Cool picture, Kevin. Looks like the tC is cloaked or something with the reflection the way it is.

Not sure how I feel about that color. Kinda meh... But that teal or tiffany blue xB in the background!! :fapfapfap:
