hmm..this is the same wheel size I plan on running next summer when I (finally..hopefully..) get my wheels..sorry to thread jack but would a TRD drop still rub with this setup? I thought about switching the hotchkis but now i'm thinking I should just stick with what I have

so its not bad when you turn, thats what i thought you were talking about, bumps i can handle, but i know the wheels i have in mind are going to rub, 18x9 all the way around with a 35 offset, they will work but rub up front, oh well

hey davedavetc,
how do you like the HKS Hipermax? Im really tempted....you think itll help my rubbing prob? it seems my car dips to much when i roll over bumps and dips.....I have tokicos, but i think the tanabe spring rates are too low?

well i got good rubber on the stockies for track days, so i was planning on running falkens 912's, i had them before and really liked them
are your rear fenders rolled any??? from what i read i should be fine with just a little rubbing up front as long as i roll the fenders,
