Looks like 18x9.5 Miro 111s with 215/40s. That's more stretch than I had with 225s.

^ Sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do when you're running an aggressive setup. Being sunk isn't for everybody.

You know what that calls for... WHEEL SHOPPING SPREE!!! common guys, who's down?!

btw Midnight, those wheels look hard. I like how it's not a deep dish, yet still wide, it fits it great with the white contrast.

I had to pull them to make the wheels fit. they rub ULTRA hard with roll and pull. like Jasper said you gotta do what you gotta do.

LETZgoBUDDY- Yea when I talked to the guys I ordered from they thought the wheels were going to be deep dish too esp with the offset. but when they contacted TDR in England both of our minds were blown

I just checked the site I brought the wheels from and they don't carry them anymore lol now the only place to get them is straight from England.

what size tire? The only reason I would consider getting a non-white car would be to run white wheels and have some contrast instead of white on white. Doesn't look like too much camber either, setting?

The tires are 225/35/18 camber is just -3.1. I want better coils before making camber more negative. racelands are very limited unless modded but I wanna do it right.

I miss this thread, project cars are cool but I can't help but keep coming here to check on what everyone is up to.

I found this video of when I first put my car on air, I don't think that I ever showed anyone here. There is no aggressive fitment involved, but I figured that you guys would appreciate it.

Check it out HERE

For those of you who have ever done 215/35 on a 9.5" wheel, what are your experiences? Not to be a d*ck, but I don't care if you know someone who has run a 215/35 on a 13" wheel or something stupid, I'm looking for real experiences from people who have actually done a similar stretch. Or worse. I know some of you do 215/35 on 10s.

And I'm really interested in hearing from people who daily their cars and see the highway often.

Jasp, i can let you know this week. I am going to be putting my RSs on this week some time. I did 205/40 on my 9.5 and 215/45 on my 10.5

I believe my 9's had 205/35 last summer. It was a little harsh at times, but nothing out of control.

Yeah I'm just questioning the stretch for daily driving. If I don't drop a series to 35 or raise the car, I'll just buckle a fender again.

Specs will be:
18x9.5 and 18x8.5 (+19) w/ adapters
Hey Yay Jaw Knee interested in pics when you finally mount them...I will be running a similar set up and want to see how it will come out.

I'm looking for adaptors 5x100 to 5x114.3 PM me details if you want to sell them.
