theres a thin line between stretch/aggressive and stupidity and that car crosses it. the tires dont even reach the lip of the wheel. its just plain dangerous to drive like that.

I hope this counts. I've added 10mm eibach spacers recently (thanks to imalazeeass for selling me his spacers for a good price). I've sprayed them with some black paint so they don't stand out and using nismo 50mm long hub bolts (factory ones are 40mm). All in all, the wheels now sit like they should. Looks wise, it's a night and day difference. Some people may not approve spacers here, but with Volk wheels you really don't have a choice: run panzy offsets or space it out for a meaner look... The original offsets were 17/18, now it's 7/8.

fackin awesome man!!! you give me courage to put 15mm spacers on my front even though I'm already rubbing when I take bumpy corners with the 10mm spacers I have on right now, lol.
your rears look similar to mine though, we both have a non-stretched tire, I had to cut my fenders and set up -2.5 camber to make it work however. What camber are you running in the rear ?

you can definitely run 15 in the front. My previous wheels were 9.5/11 with +4 offsets all around (20 inch rims too), so this setup isn't really new to me. With coilovers it's easy to fix all that rubbing by simply adjusting the preloads too. As far as camber goes, I have -2.5 front and -3 or -3.5 rear. Planning on adjusting the rear to about -2.5 or so. I have around 4mm clearance left in the rear. For the fronts I'm using a cusco camber kit to add camber. Low offsets make such a huge difference. I like a stretched look, but I don't like running 255 tires on a 10.5 rim just for the look. It's stupid imo. Now, 285 on 11.5-12" or 275/11, that's another story. Traction comes first.

5. This is a aggressive wheel fitment and stretch thread, so thats what should be posted instead of these weak fitments.
6. Wide tires dont classify as aggressive



I dont think some of you understand the meaning of this thread title.

just my .2
honestly man, its not worth trying to explain. save your two cents...you'll go broke trying to throw it into this thread. people have different views of aggressive and stretch fitment. Plain and simple. too much whining on this thread and not enough pics.

here are some old pics of my G:











i consider these stretched tires but not so aggressive fitment.

Maybe someone should start a new thread about "why i have nothing else better to do than whine today, post UP!!" so we can unclog this thread. hehe...just my 2 cents.
