Yeah I know Blain. I just don't want to run that short of a tire. My front bumper is already barely less than 2" off the ground...haha.Originally Posted by 4DGS
Marcus, if you run a 215/35 on the front you won't rub

Specs are:
8.5 +0 (25mm spacer) - 225/35/19 Yokohama S-drive
9.5 +10 (20mm spacer) - 235/35/19 Yokohama S-drive
If I had to guess I would say my camber is at 4 degrees (maybe a bit more) front and rear. We tried to get the rear camber to match the front.
When I get my alignment I'll find out exactly what my camber is. Camber up front is natural (no camber arms) for a ~3.4" drop.

very nice .. i love the set up right now ... i may just end up doing same tire set up as you cause i was think 215/35 on a 8.5 and a 225/35 on a 9.5 but i love the ways yours is with those tire sizes ! you may have just changed my mind ..
.. when you get a chance take some further picture shots ...
when you get a chance take some further pictures of the set up !!

^For sure man. I'll get some better pics up tomorrow. Gotta wash the car this evening then I'll snap a few at sunrise tomorrow.
One thing to consider about your tire size too is the tire brand. S-drives run true, so check the 225/235 width in inches from the manufacturers website of the tires you choose to determine how much stretch you'd have versus what I have.

Shane, Dre, Johnny, and John (FinallyGotaG) are all running Generals. They are a very popular tire for stretching. Very affordable too. I ordered Hankooks (V12s), but they weren't in stock for like 4 weeks in the size I needed so I got the S-drives as an alternative. Pleased with them so far.

^Looking forward to seeing your setup with the larger spacer up front Ernie. Like Tim said, with your wheels I wouldn't paint the spacer.

yea the generals i found shipped where under 600 from i think discount tire or tiredirect i don't recall ... but it wasn't to bad i thought and heard a lot of good things about them ... but i know the general and hankook stretch a little different then each other ...

I didnt paint the spacer. I went out and took some pics. Today I will post them later tonight. I know what is going to be said. I need to go lower and I could go with 5 mm more up front.
I think I can do it, I will just adjust my camber some. I am also working on getting some coupe seats. I might do a color interior change. I found someone selling door panels all 4 for 280. Then I would need to get some rear seats and other things.

I am running 19x9 +12 now. With a 225/40
Yeah or maybe a two tone like Levon. But I dont want to copy him.
Man if I didnt get that MRI bill, I would have a few different things. Maybe a new wheel setup.
