Well, I might as well post this comparison up. Now, I know it's not as aggressive as some of the folks on the forums, but adding Ichiba V1 10mm spacers make the wheels sit perfect for me since it's a daily driver.

My rear wheel specs are 19x9 +33 with 245/35/19 Nitto NT555. I had hesitation about rub, but after having them on for a week, I've noticed no rubbing

Thanks to StanCe for helping with the install and AristoPra for the spacers!

Hell yeah Chris! Got the idea from you when you had 5mm installed (do you still?)... so small yet such a big difference! Thanks for the comment Hoovey

Nope, no rubbing. I haven't done any fender mods either. It actually sits perfect (credit card will barely fit between the tire and fender). I haven't taken a turn hard enough yet to see if I get rubbing on a slight roll (more suspension mods on the way?)... if I do, my next set of tires might be a smidge smaller.

I haven't seriously considered powder coating, but it's crossed my mind since I have some blemishes on the face of two of the wheels. If I were to powder coat, I dont think I'd do anything similar to Burning Black. I'm not a fan of dark wheels on a dark car, but if I did it, I'd probably get a flat black. For now I'm sticking to my silver on SGM color combo. I like contrast.

I ditched the 5mm and went with a 10mm. And went with a 15mm in front.

I wanna see this in person sometime but I've been pretty busy. Sorry! I will try to make it out to one of those Thursday night meets again.
