I will say rolling my fenders and the alignment were the worst parts of the whole process... but now everything's gravy!
Im happy to hear that. I think the worst part for me is waiting almost 3 months for rims to be back on stock

Sorry for the semi thread jack...

O HELLA, does the front rub with your setup? Specifically, when turning and/or small bumps (going up driveways, etc)?

I'm sure Brian's car doesn't rub, since his drop isn't that aggressive and he's on 19's.

Now, 20's on the other hand, might rub a bit. I know mine do.

Kon, what are your specs? Wheels, tires, camber, etc. Also your suspension setup. I've got 20" Volk GT-C's, offset +22/+26, 245/275 tires. Would like to know what size spacers I should get. I prefer not to get too crazy with the camber tho. Any advice?

^ if you're pretty low (over 1.5") and wanna go lower than, say, +15 offset, then your 245/35 front will rub...
go with 225/35 or 245/30.

F: 20x9.5 +15, Yoko S-Drive 245/35
R: 20x10.5 +15, Yoko S-Drive 275/30

Camber is -0.8 all around, give or a take .01 degrees or so.

Suspension is Megan Street Coils. Maxed out in the rear, but I still have about 1/4 an inch left to go down in the front. I'll be cutting my rear spring mount by 1/4 of an inch within the next few weeks as well/

Due to my rubbing issue, I plan on switching to a stretch tire in the front, since I'll be getting 15mm spacers anyway to be able to clear a BBK in the front. So my new set up will be:

225/35, Toyo Extensa
245/35, Yoko S-Drive

For your set up tho, I'd get 10mm spacers all around. Tire sizes, I would do the following:

245/30 General UHP's
275/30 General UHP's

I wish I would have gone with a 30 series in the front, instead of a 35, since I rub when my suspension compresses. Some rubbing is to be expected tho, since that's the part of the game when you lower your car. But I follow in the footsteps of eurodre's wizard magic and just drive slower, to keep the rubbing to a minimum.
