Tom - ah man, i just realised, the specs you quoted for your rims offsets at the beginning of the thread were including the spacers right? So you actually have higher offsets than that but thats with the spacer width minused off?
i just ordered some 25mm spacers for the front of my car without really measuring, working off your specs but i was taking 15mm off the specs you quoted at the start of the thread.... sht lol looks like ill have them up for sale soon!

Looks awesome with RIGHT FITMENT!!!
I have a quick question though, do you need any suspension mods to fit rims of that sizing (other than coilovers)?
I'm new to the GS scene but not new to aggressive fitment, not sure if a 19x9.5 +15 will hit anything in the front like the Upper Arm Assembly? Even with stock wheels it look pretty close to touching it. Do you remove the splash guards in the wheel well? Harness tucking required (sorry, i come from the 240sx scene so that's always an issue).
How about the rears?
If there are no camber adjustment arms, all stock, how much camber is induced when slamming the GS300 with coils? -2? -3?
Thanks!
Edit: I've also read you have to cut a small hole in the wheel well so the UCA doesn't hit, or at least not so often? How low do you got till it starts banging the wheel wells? Sorry for all the questions =P

NO!!! i got exact rca camber kits on and adjustable megan toe arms due to the fact that i didnt want to run too much camber and wanted my toe back to specs to be flushed!! its how u want ur car to look and drive, everyone has their own opinion and perferences

thats pretty aggressive for our 2gs, might wanna stretch some tires and you'll be good.. 225/35 or even 215/35. UCA only hit if u bottom out. Get some better spring rate and that shud solve some of the problems
Even with stock wheels it look pretty close to touching it. Do you remove the splash guards in the wheel well? Harness tucking required (sorry, i come from the 240sx scene so that's always an issue).
I personally wont remove the splash guards but some do.. no harness tucking unless u want to

depends on how slammed u want to be.. at most people can go up to -5 i think, on my was at -4 without the camber kit on
Thanks!

like ive said its only when u bottom out then you'll hit the uca, cuttin the whole will reduce the banging and tearing up the UCA
hope this helps
