So i have an 06 sedan dropped on 19x8.5 +45 245/35 and 19x9.5 +40 245/35, i have the suspension at the lowest possible setting, im going tomorrow to have the rears rolled and will be cutting a portion of my spring mount to try to gain as much as possible...my question is: what sort of camber kit, toe arms, a arms should i be looking for, and what size spacers for a nice flush look (not looking for anything too aggressive) thanks in advance

this is how it currently stands:

Honestly, if you need to ask those probably aren't the wheels for you.

The front will be a bitch to fit since there is next to nothing to stretch on them. So say you go with a 215/35 (because there isn't anything smaller) you'll need a vicious phone book pull and -6 degrees of camber roughly...

The rear, you're going to need to flair flat (horizontal fender) and run around -9 degrees of camber with the same size tire (215/35)

this is how it currently stands:
What springs/coils? You probably won't need anything to adjust toe correctly. Get a rear camber kit. Ichiba or SPC work great.

As for spacers. I'd do a 20mm up front and a 10mm in the back. Ichiba V2s are suggested.

If you could find a really good wheel shop they could plug them and redrill them.

Farhan, those are not the offsets on those wheels man. They're like +35 and +33.... not negatives. you can run those with WAAAAY less work.

Camber kits for the front are a waste, you can get pretty damn close to spec without having to buy a $350 front camber kit.

Yea, I just checked, offsets are in the 30s.

Honestly, I wouldn't buy from him if he doesn't know the difference between positive offsets and a half width negative wheel.

Sorry I started a thread before looking into this one:

2005 g sedan
Front 20x8.5 +38. Will run a 20mm spacer for +18 offset

Rear 20x9.5 +45. 25mm spacer for an offset +20

Planned tire sizes: 225/35/20 front and 255/30/20.

Am I looking at the right sizes? Comparing The stock sizes they're very similar

^ Why the 35 series in front? Since you're not going for stretch I think you should run the 30 profile.

I'm trying to stay as close to stock as possible.

That works, but if you're lowered the rear will definitely rub without a little fender work.
