Have a Question/s About Wheels/Tires/Offsets/Camber/Etc? Ask here::
All the wheels? Do you know how much work that is? I might as well swap out my rotors and pads too. Maybe i'll upgrade to the 05-06 brakes or brembos while i'm at it. Move on to fixing my compression rods since they squeek. Or how about i change that bad bearing too. I tell you what. Come to think of it, a motor swap at that point isn't a bad idea. Why not just take the whole frame and motor and tranny out and put it in a old 240sx and pull a freak hot rod build. Why not just blow the thing up while i'm at it.
I was making a suggestion since your car is an 03 model and you've had a problem with one of the studs already.
Sorry for making a suggestion to assure safety and save you any future hassles.
I think you need to change your tampon ASAP cause you aren't going to get any help with that kind of attitude.
And no don't blow up the car, just sell it and get an old Civic cause people like you make the rest of us look bad.

Looking at a set of volk gts's
I have an 03 coupe with the brembos...
Specs are F 19x9.5 +17 offset with a Kumho Ecsta 245/35/19 tire and R 19x10.5 +18 offset with a Kumho Ecsta 285/35/19 tire.
Any issues?
EDIT - stock ride height.

good setup. I'd suggest a 275 tire rather than 285.
clearing brembo will be based on the disk type not the offset. I'm not to familiar on that part though.
I have OE 18's .. My passenger front tire has a bubble and my friend who has a Nismo 350z is willing to give me his old OE tires which are 245/40/18 for the front..being that my rears are 245/45/18 .. will I be ok, I dont want the traction light to go crazy.

I roll on S-drives with T1S wheels. Falken are good and a lot of people use them too, but there sidewall's tend to be weak
I got 275/30/20 and 255/30/20 setup from tire rack for approx. 600 shipped to my door. I think it was cheaper than Falkens, plus the tread is cool

I have nitto invo tires. pretty good set, but the rears are noisy now that theyre beyond 50% worn. i ran a 285 on a 10.5 wheel and its pretty meaty.
would stretching a 275 tire on the wheel change the wear dynamics and possibly avoid being noisy?
