Congrats... Could you not have gone a lil more aggressive on the widths, offsets, or even tires?

Volks are pretty limited in terms of width and offset for the sedans. It's either 9.5 or 10.5 wide in the rears. Obvisiously 10.5 way too wide. I opted to go with a 9.5 but offsets were only available in +34 or +47. +34 would have stuck out past the fender. I was debating on running a tire combo in a 255/275 but it didn't look good. Any suggestions on running spacers?

The +34 would work with rolled fenders and a little negative camber since they are 9.5's but looks a little too aggressive IMO. The 07 is so clean and should stay that way.

Nice looking rims. They look like they will clear a BBK for sure.

Thanks for your opinion! By the way any suggestions on running spacers?

The fronts may rub when you hit a bump in a turn if you go out much more.

You could run at least a 5mm, if not 10mm in the rear for sure. It would help a lot too! I would say to get a pair of 5mm's. They will still sit in a little but it will fill that gap up quite a bit.

Sounds like a plan to run 5mm. Where should I purchase them?

There are a few sponsors that have them or ebay.

Gin@CZP (sponsor) said they have Ichiba ones which are good. With anything over 3mm it is a good idea to install longer wheel studs. Some guys go 5mm without but I would not. My new brakes have ~3mm thicker hats and I am getting the longer Nismo studs just to be safe.
