Just got the tires mounted on my 19" Enkei Rp03's - Like 'em so far!

Gurgen's limited choice of ideal rear offset was aggrivated by the 'beefy' KDW2 tires, as it stick out a bit more than we both would have liked. Adding a bit more negative camber should work out nicely, making for a very aggressive stance ... at a little expense in tire wear and handling traits.

Hey guys
It was late in the evening, which is part of the reason that no pics could have been taken. Just as Clint said, the offset is a little too aggressive but it wouldn't be nearly as bad if the tires were smaller. It's is not like the tires do not fit on this wheel - they do so perfectly. The issue is that the offset was a little too aggressive for this car, that's all there is too it. It does look incredibly aggressive, however... Just not what I really wanted.

Gurgen, please post some impressions on these tires when you have the chance - I just ordered a set of 255/35/19 and 285/35/19 to go with my 19x9.5/10.5 SF-winnings (best/cheapest available in those sizes) - too bad it's going to be 2+ months before I get to test them out (special order offsets on the wheels)
