My offsets are too aggressive to lower it right now (without having to do any modifications) .. I'm rubbing on the bumper tab at stock height!!!

I'm gonna lower it eventually- either after I shave a few mm off the back of my current wheels, or when I get new wheels - I don't want to stretch my tires or put on negative camber ... [Im running 19x8.5 +30 up front right now]. I'm thinking an offset between +32 and +35 would do it...

^ I rubbed a nice hole in my fender liner with 19x8.5+35 front wheels on 235/35/19 rubbed dropped to just zero finger gap. If I could do it all over again, I would have rolled or shaved the fronts right away, gone with 225/35/19 and heated the fender liner to push it back.

Spotted a white 2IS with a full GFX and black wheels in Atherton last night.

Just saw you in fc. You pulled out in front of me & literally hung out your window to wave at us. Is that the Wald exhaust? Will you be at bos? Your car is sick! Love how tight your wheels fitted.

About an hour ago - downtown san mateo on 4th ave.

It was dark so it was hard to see - but it looked like a modded SGM ISX50 with some sort of foglight mod... I was stopped directly across from you at the intersection with the one working foglight

Try runnin 275/40? rear and 245/40 in the front... Had to raise the front and rears. Shave the rear fenders, tab mod on the front and STILL rubbing at times or aggressive driving.

Yes it was me going to TeaWay. But no, headlights are not modified. They are artisans.

Yes, it was me. It was hot that day. Needed a jamba juice. Nope, I do not have Wald exhaust; it is artisan.
