Thumbs up opinions

So I need new tires. I am going to get 235/40-18 due to they are cheap. I currently have z springs and struts. Should I get 20/25 mm spacers on all 4. Would this fit and look decent ? or be pushed out way to far ? Thanks

or does anyone have a better Idea on spacers like 15 20 or what? please help!

Just want aggressive and clean.

CURRENT SETUP:








thanks!

your running same tire size all around?

do you want to roll your fenders?

Current wheel setup on all 4:

League WKR-1
18X8 5-114.3 40BRS

Here is the tire I am going to be running on all 4:

and yeah I would be willing if it is as easy as the DIY with the PVC pipe to roll the fenders.
hope that helps! And thanks

ahaha yeah. Well I have done a lot of reading but nothing really is that helpful this is the only thread that had a decent amount of information. I think I am just going to sack up and get 20 in the front and 25 in the back and roll the fenders in time.

Based on those pics, i'd go 10mm all around, but what tires are in those pictures???

Also you WILL need to get your fenders rolled or cut, it looks like you are pretty close as is and a spacer will def. make yu rub, especially since you want an aggressive stance.

I'd definitely lower the car some more and then do the spacers, unless you're okay with the current ride height. If you plan on dropping the car soon then I'd hold off on spacers, because depending on your drop you may need larger spacers.

Going with a 40 sidewall, although cheaper, will increase the gap you have, so I would consider going lower.
