19" Coupe Wheels on Sedan...Spacer?

Hello,

I'm looking at running the Coupe 19" wheels on my 04 Sport sedan. I am going to be runing Tein S-tech's from a coupe to lower it.

I have a question though, I do not like the the tucked in wheel look. I want to have my wheels as flush with the out side of the fender as possible to give it a wide looking stance.

Any one ever done this and/or know what width would work?

Thanks,

Jeremy

Spacers are not needed, they will not look tucked. Offsets of Coupe wheels are +30 front/ +33 rear. They line up pretty flush with the Sedan, rear wheels will stick out just a bit (see pics). Not at my computer right now, but here are the best pics I had in my photobucket:

Thanks Jeremy.

Car is not dropped yet. Getting Eibach Pro Kit springs (1.1" F/R) and Tokico D-Spec shocks installed next week. Wanted to go for a "conservative" drop, not looking to drop it to the ground.

I would really like to see it when you get them installed. I have Tein S-tech's from a Coupe that I am going ot install. From what I have found there about 2in front and 1.4 rear. I'll have to see how that works out, may go with somthing like the Eibach.

Thanks again!!

Jeremy

Thanks for the pictures, car looks great!

I just put Tein S tech's from a Coupe on my car last weekend. Its a bit rougher of a ride than I wanted, I think it maybe my stock Sport shocks.

Thanks again,

Jeremy
