Recently bought new wheels
- 18x 8.75 + 33 front
- 18x 9.75 +20 rear
Would like to stay away from stretch for the most part so I was thinking 235/40 front and 255/40 rear? Already know to roll all fenders but will the fronts be a little sunken? Thanks

Anyone with experience with or heard anything about BC Racing coilovers? One of my guys here is giving them high praise. I know they're a few bills higher than i was initially considering but I would like to get something I'll like for a while and will hold up for the duration of adjustments and some occasional pushing.

Go over to the "Suspension and Brakes" threads.... Lots of postings on all of the more popular choices including BC, Stance, Tein, and many more... Use the search to narrow down the list.

Thanks Duck...Obviously a sophomoric question. I'll just make the purchase and move on...

Read thru 30 of the most recent pgs on this 350+ tread n I'm still stuck. So many diff set ups n the more I read the more I get confused on whats the best choice for my coiled coupe. She's on EZ Megan's. I haven't bought anything yet but I wanna go with 19s for sure n NOT do any fender modifications. Based on your experience how wide of rim/ tire/ n which offset can I go without rubbing or tire stretching. No ridiculous camber I want my tires flat on the ground w even thread wear.

yes, that will be pretty sunk

Rim Brand and Type: Koya Drift Tek
Rim Size f/r: 18" x 9.5"
Rim Offset f/r: +18
Tire Size f/r: 235/40/18
Suspension Setup: BC BR coilovers
Comment On Ride: Have ran this set-up in the past & by far most favourable. It's a good balance of comfort & tight handling with minimal rubbing.
Fender Modifications: Rolled flat, main wiring harness relocation. Airbag wiring protected by registration plates bolted to inner wheel arch.
