Looks really good, what you need to do is drop it about 2" you'll be straight...

I was going to work this morning, and evertime I get a bump or a dip in the road, my rear tire scrapes!! I put 255/35/20 in the rear. What can I do?

You gotta roll your rear fenders...substantially actually, if you want to drop it. Ive never really liked those rims personally, but surprisingly, they look pretty ill in that hyperblack. Props homie. My suggestions to you, would be to shave your fenders as much as possible without burning thru your car , and get a very slight drop, springs that drop an exact 1" all around, and your "fo doh G" is gonna be off the hook.

You're rubbing and you aren't lowered in the rear... You will need to roll your fenders like everyone suggested the 255 tire will get you a little more space but it will be cheaper to roll your fenders than to get smaller tires.

Yeah I'm going to get the fenders rolled like you guys have suggested. I'm going to wait on the drop. I have to research it and do it right. Where should I go for the fender roll? A body shop?

some wheel shops do this too.

just make sure they use a hub-mounted fender rolling tool, a heat-gun, and that they go relatively slow. You should be fine as far as cracking the paint and or creasing the outside panel.

what city are you from, that could help in recommending a place.......

I'm in Fort Lauderdale FL, but I work in Miami. So any place in south Florida would be cool.

They look great, thanks for the pictures as I am thinking about these for my black sedan also.

One question? what offset did you go with?
