I hated when my fenders would buckle too (fronts). I always forget that they were hot and would burn my hands when I hand pulled them back into place.

I have 20x8.5/30 and 20x10/38 wheels for my sedan and will purchase hankook V12 tires 235/30 and 255/30. I want to lower it to fill in gap and set the wheels flush. I also have the BC coils w/SPC and swapped out the 8/10 springs for the 12/10's. I don't think I'll need a spacer in the rear but I know I will at least need a 10mm up front. Am I on the right track? Just want to be sure before I start my install.

Depends how low you go, you have a really slight stretch in the back... the tire sizes in general are actually really weird.

The front will be totally fine with a 10mm and you could even do a 15mm and not worry about it. I'd throw a 5 or 10mm on the back though as well (unless you plan to put the camber 100% in spec)

Thanks. What company would you recommend I get the spacers from? I do plan on being low also. I don't DD it so I want to have any wheel gap. In regards to the tire sizes, should I re-think that?

Make sure feders are rolled Flat and you should be ok and tires you should get a little more stretch since it's not DD go all the way.

And good brands spacers, I would say Ichiba or project Kicks hear lot off them. Make sure you post up picks I would like to see this

Don't order Ichiba.

There's a company on Ebay that makes them and the quality is a million times better. ichiba use to be decent but they have cut corners every possible way and just aren't worth it.

I'm about to pull the trigger on the Hankook V12 tires. But I just remembered seeing the chart posted in this thread on how tires sizes run. Does anyone know if the V12s run true, large, or small?
