Nope, rolled fenders is all. 18x9.5s +35 with 255/35 tires. Doesn't hit the rear knuckle either, even the 2ga knuckle with less clearance

Advan RG D... nice... what is it 650 a wheel...

Sell me the car.

Good looking car.

Actually they are my red Advan RG1s (discontinued and not copied by rota thank god) that I sent off to a local shop to be polished. Close though haha

.... Why man ? Your not my friend anymore.

Ouch, that's harsh man The wheels needed to be redone because the red was pretty beat up. With polished I can plastidip them red and have almost the exact same look and then go back to polished whenever. With red I can't polish them and still go back to red easily

Very nice. Do you have a shot that shows off the poke more?

They really don't "poke" much, if any at all, but I will see what I can come up with tonight when I get off work

What tires? I'm curious to see the section width and compare them to others. That seems like it'd have some contact issues unless the tire is skinnier.

Tires on now are General Exclaim UHPs (cheapo tires for the time being). When I bought the wheels I threw them on the car with some worn out RE01Rs(?) (the old RE-11s) and all I had to do was use a small spacer on the rear to clear the 2ga spindle

I was surprised cause I knew you ran a wide setup, but got little poke. So you'd say maybe an inch?

Hmm...difference in .2" section width between those tires you're running and the 245/40 Star Specs I'm running. Any idea how much clearance you have to the rear knuckle and how much spacer you have?

I'm not running a spacer with the Exclaims so I would say maybe a couple mm of clearance if that, there isn't much. When I ran the spacer it was a 3mm spacer but I never checked clearance with the re01r's and the spacer on. I would say this would be about the only size tire that will fit without going with a large spacer. I think 40s would be too tall and hit the knuckle and 265s would hit as well. The next set of tires I buy will likely be 255/35s as well but in a much better brand. I am guessing I will run into some problems with different tire brands but nothing a small spacer won't fix

Pics of how far it sticks out, all of the tread tucks under as you can see
Front:




Rear:

wow. Tires really do matter. I went with 245's cause I wanted it to look like that and it ended up having 1" of poke

Are you running any camber? I'm running -1.7 in front and -2.5 in the rear I think

Wow. Rediculously clean. I just saved a few pics onto my phone so I have a new background.

Holy backwards camber setup! I'm guessing you just dropped it and didn't correct either end?

Yeah I know :/ Front is where I want it actually. I have a camber kit front and rear. If I didn't run a camber kit the rear would be far worse and the front would be around -2.6 I believe. I was having some rubbing issues in the rear when people would ride with me and I would go on curves so I increased the rear camber to solve that. I need to decrease it to about -1 to-1.5 and see how bad I rub then
