^^ Throw up some pics and maybe you can get some advice from guys running coils. I think you said you felt you a bit too low (especially in the rear) and tucked...? If you like, you can zoom in to my place and we can put 'er up (if I can get my jack under there, LOL!) and try some adjustments. I'm gone all day Saturday. Kevco was thinking of coming over sometime and we were gonna try some exhaust swapping. We can take it to PM if you like...

Eno, maybe post your offsets if you know them or Blain can if he knows them. IMO the fronts are tucked a little (not that I'm any expert), but the rears can't be pushed out at all without a fender roll, there's NO gap there.

My fall vacation this year is driving across Canada and spending a week on Vancouver Island (Ucluelet/Tofino). I'm slated to be in the Calgary-ish area on September 6th...stopping just long enough to hoist one or three with Swivel... He doesn't know it yet, though. Oh, wait...

Eh- yeah... figured spacers were going to be a requirement at some point with the look I'm going for. A bit scared from all the hesitation on them from the meet... sounded like a few people didn't trust them- so we won't be going for cheap ones.
These were the offsets put up in the listing I bought off of them. Frankly, I could research offsets for 10 days and 10 nights and still not be able to transform that knowledge into comprehensible information.
I have the wrenches- so it's just a matter of lifting it. I probably won't lift it until I can push them out a bit AND lift it.
Rears- 19"x9.5" +35
Fronts- 19"x8.5" +30
Mean anything to anyone?

Yep you need huge spacers to get a flush look. I had a set of Front 19x9.5 +18 and rear 19x10.5 +17 that were fairly flush (rear fenders needed to be rolled) so you are going to be looking at 20mm spacer up front and 25mm for the rear to be any where close to filling out the wheel wells if my math is correct. The best way to judge for your self is put a tape measure against the outside of the top of the wheel and look down and see where 10, 15, 20mm would put your wheels in relation to your fenders.
Everyone has a different opinion on how they want the wheels to sit but here was how my car was with the above sizes and offsets its not agressive to the "hellaflush" crowd but to the average guy they are fairly aggressive the tires were 285mm in the back and I thin 245-255 on the front.
