I'm dropped on Z front and G Coupe rears..

Only thing you can do to pull the rim inward is to lower the car, which would result in natural camber, or you can camber the rear a tad.

If you really wanted to, you can shave off some of the back plate, but you'd need a machine for that, I wouldn't recommend it.

I'd say roll the fender. Had mine rolled completely flat and no paint chips. Just depends on how your paint is and if the person doing it heats it up well enough.

 

I can't tell for sure, but the rim itself does seem to stick out a little. You sure there are no spacers on there? Here's a similar shot of mine for comparison. If you want a really good shot of how they should look, I know Jeff92se has posted his at least once or twice.



On second look, I think it's just the tires. Lose those 255/40s and see how it goes from there. A fender roll should be the most you need to do, I haven't heard of anyone needing to pull their sedan fenders just to run coupe 19s.

 

You definitely don't have to pull fenders to run coupe 19's...as slammed as I was, it just needed a medium roll.

 

Thanks guys, I'll run with these tires for the winter, and look into the rolling.

 

and here i was thinking i needed spacers on the coupe 19"s i bought with 255 rear for a flush look, you guys are saying not get spacers? i was thinking 10mm all around to make em more aggressive, my front tires are 225, rear 255. i'm gonna be lowered on sedan S techs, i thought they'd tuck once i drop it and i don't want them to tuck lol i want them flush

 

Definitely think that the sidewall size is too great. You need 245/35 in front and 255/35s in the rear and you will have NO rubbing and no issues. Also, you need z springs up front to lower by 1" and g cpe springs out back to lower 1/2". That also helps tuck the wheel in with some slight neg. camber. However, they really don't stick out. The hella flush look is great and imo they do not stick out at all. I think if you don't lower it, the rays 19s on stock springs looks dorky/nerdy. Here is some b4 and after shots.

I rolled my lips out back as precaution to allow use of 40 series tires with no rubbing. 35 series looks the best and rides/handles nicely. I understand about your crappy roads etc.......so I understand about you wanting to keep stock height.

I like how it sticks out a little. I can't wait to get the Coupe 19s and do the same thing.

 

I drove on grand central parkway today and my wheels rubbed over big bumps. I'm going to HAVE to change these tires. Do you think I could just get 245/35 in the back and avoid rolling?

 

^ i rather spend money on rolling the fenders then changing tires.

 

What size are your tires, they look perfect.

 

245/40 rear

235/35 front which I've since sold (sidewall too short) and gone with 245/35s on the front.

JMO but I think 245/40 all around would look good, I like the nice straight sidewall -- no stretch, no bulge. Also, I currently have my winters on which are all the same diameter and with the G/Z springs I have a nearly identical gap front and back, which I really like.

IMO 245/35 is too short for the rear.

 

Pics with the oem re050s 225 / 245 40s. But the 255-35 look almost the same as the Michelins seems to be a touch thinner for the same size making the 255 almost the same width as the re050 bridgestones:

Note. With the 245 40 the rears look lower but it's becuase the OD of the tires leaves less clearance. with the 255-35, the od is almost right on and the drop "appears" even (ie.. wheel well clearances look more even)

 

^^ those are the pics I was talking about, thanks Jeff. (jeebus, does it ever stop raining out there?)
