Looks GREAT!!! Luv the staggered look with FAT lips!!!
What spring/drop are you running?
Any fender rubbing issues?
I'm planning on running the same specs also, so your insights would be very helpful. Thanks
Wow!!! She does look awesome!

I am on Tanabe NFs. The front tires rub a little when I hit a dip...not too bad though. You can't even see any scretches on the tires...so I would assume it minor rubbing. I have no rubbing issue at all in the rear...
Cionide has helped me a lot on a lot of my questions... Big thanks to Cionide!!

You're very welcome.
I friggin' knew it! I've seen many people post up that their 19x8.5 +35 with 235/35's don't rub on a Tanabe NF210, Eibach Pro-Kit, or TRD spring drop (all 1" front drops). I found it hard to believe, but I figured "Hey, they're doing it and say they don't rub, so it must be true."
I'm really sorry you're rubbing at all, I never want to give bad info. I guess the solution is to stay away from dips.

With the 5mm spacer, does that make the rear wheel offset to be +40??
CIONIDE would know this answer.
Thanks.

Offset is the measurement from the inside of the wheel where it mounts to the hub, to the centerline of the wheel. The offset of the wheel doesn't change, the offset is still +45.
5mm spacers just push the wheels out another 5mm for clearance.

Or you will get the same overall result with 19X9.5 +40 without any spacer... I used the spacer because the spokes were hitting my brakes so I added the 5mm spacer for clearance.
