19x10 +37 rear (soon to be +27 or +22) with 255/35

Once my rear tires need replacing i was considering moving the 225's out back and going 205's in the front, but for now i want to be as flush as i can with my current tires
24.25" and 24.5" is a sick drop for those tire sizes, you will be tucking tire nicely. I would not do a 205/225 combo, tires are way too small. Smallest I would do on a 9/10 for our cars is 225/235 (or 245 depending on how much stretch you need out back).

thanks for the input everyone. I am trying to get the car ready for a show in Tucson on the 29th. I think once i get my fender pinched and throw a spacer on the rear with more drop it will be money

My preload in the front is snug where I can turn the coils with my hand and then I turned it half inch more after. That's how I did it .. I still have more threads to drop it more if I wanted to..im a little under 24" in the front and that's enough for me lol..

It's to the point now where I'm going to contact BC. I was waiting for some one with the 12/10 rates to post. Maybe I got something wrong. My fronts are twisted all the way down and I backed the pre-load off a little to go lower.

Yeah. I lower it by threading the shock into the body.

You didn't get the 12/10 springs?

18" Equips
10+18+3mm spacer=10+15, running a 3mm spacer to clear brembo. Has 245-40's up front.
11+22??I believe that is around what the rear offsets are currently since the rebarrel. Has 265-35's.

Equips FTW Mario!

Needs a tad more low and camber out back. Thats the tough part about 18s gotta be dumped to pull them off.

I am already maxed out on the spc rears lol. Not sure at what degree the camber is yet. I need alignment to fix the toe to see if I am able to do a 1/4 inch mo lo. I could of gone with a 255 but didnt want that much stretch. I wanted a lil meaty stretch look. So i am forcing it lol. Im heading out to temple city for alignment saturday.

one more blurry one

Dang maxed out on SPC rears, you've gotta have more camber than me and I'm at -5.5 or so out back. You'll probably need to elongate your toe bolt holes to bring the toe back into spec.
