I'm currently on my cpe 19's and alignment tech failed to read the special note on my ticket and took my camber to factory spec FTL...

I was at -4 and -3.7 in the rear and that was after me raising it up .75 inch... Interested to see how bad my toe is off, my front tires were showing wires and my rear was showing cords!

It’s hard to say Marcus. I got the tires used and they had pretty good thread on them.

My front went from good, to cord, to wires in a very short amount of miles. I hit a dip pretty hard this weekend and it threw out my specs. I’ve also played around with the height so much that the specs always get thrown off. Think if got an alignment every time I adjusted the height then my tires would have lasted a lot longer. The problem was I couldn’t find an alignment shop where I couldn’t I could my car up on the rack.

Finally found a place that you roll up to a flat platform then they raise your car, so I should be able to hit the alignment machine more often.

Thinking of getting 18x9.5 +35 all around with 245/40. On Eibach coupe sportlines or coilovers, fenders are rolled. Does anyone see any problems with 9.5 being up front?

I have no idea what your ride height and camber settings are but you can fit a 9.5 +35 up front with no prob, but not with a 245/40, the tire is too large. It will fit with a 245/35. If you ran that size out back though it would be too tucked.

Any reason why you aren't going to stagger the wheels?
