Searched for 2 days.. still need suspension help / opinions...
#16
Well, I went to the tire shop today and this is what we ended up with. My wheels only come in a 35 or 20 mm offset. Obviously we have the 35's. We originally tried a 275 on the rear with a 9.5" wide rim, but it stuck out way to far. So, we went to a 8.5" all the way around with 255/35/20 all the way around. Looks good, just waiting on the springs now. I went with Eibach on the springs for the pure reason they were designed with a sedan non sport suspension in mind. I'll post pics when I am done.

+35 mm offset.... we tried a 245/35/20 up front and a 255/35/20 in the rear, but the way the fender lines are cut higher in the front, combined with the tad bit smaller side wall of the 245/35 it just doesn't look right.
The 255/35 on all 4s is the perfect look with +35 mm offset.
Any input on rubbing would be appreciated. .....

I am an idiot sometimes..... I named myself wrong... I do have a sedan. Any idea how to change my name and still stay linked to all (haha, all 4) my posts?
Any ways, we are going to lower it and test it out. What part rubs in the front? Does it rub simply from bounce, or when you turn?
I guess I could try 245's all the way around..... The wheels I got sound like the wrong offset, but I have read on here that a 255 on all 4's was the perfect size. You guys know best, shoot every tire thread I see you guys are in it...you work at a tire shop or someting?

Thanks for all your help with the wheels and tires. I ended up going with Eibach Sport Line and ADR +35 mm offset sterlings. 255/35/20 on all 4's. It looks real good.
Would look better if I could get that front lip!
