my car was much lower than that when i had s-techs....and mine is a daily driver and i am maxed out on coils, no excuses haha

 

Looking good ieG786!

Im looking to pick up a set of ES 1.1.12 19x9.5 +12 F&R. I was gonna ask this question in the wheel fitment thread but, I figured you guys that are already rollin on Varrs would be more helpful. Im looking for a square setup. 9.5 +12 front and rear. It gives the car a more neutral handling AND the added benefit of rotating tires. So at the moment im looking at a 245/40-19 tire all around. It will provide more comfort and rim protection. According to this wheel/ tire size calculator here
http://www.rimsntires.com/specs.jsp
Im within the 3% guideline of the VDC. Now I know a 40 series tire is shocking to some but, keep this in mind. Im at stock height w/stock suspension. If I lower it at all. An inch is all I will give up. Coils or strut/shock spring combo. It won't change. Any constructive feedback with pros and cons would be awesome. Thanks guys!

 

that's going to tuck in the rear

 

once you drop youre gna need spacers. not really that aggressive. but those wheels are nice i like the step lip.

 

Lol slam it! my car is slammed on stances and its my daily. FTW

 

Im okay with a little bit of tuck. It is my daily afterall. Being at stock height with a 40 series tire should help. If I ever needed to run spacers. It wouldn't take much 10mm or so and im back to where I would need to be.

 

true but you should go wider for the rears. go with the 10.5 then youll be alright with that offset.

 

I actually like the idea of going with a 10.5 on the rear. Problem is that VarrsToen only offers the ES112 in the newer width of 11". I think 11" is a bit to much for someone at stock height or even lowered an inch or so. What about trying to stay with a squared setup and throwing on a small spacer in the rear? Or perhaps running a different offset that Varrs offer on the 9.5"?

 

Do you plan on going any lower than 1.5? Go for a 2in drop get the 11s and run a higher offset like a 20 or something.

 

Definetly couldn't go lower than 1.5". I scrape my lip and exhaust as it is(which makes me question my suspension) leaving my driveway. Perhaps I could run a 9.5" in the rear at +12 and a 9.5" +22 up front. I would no longer have a square setup but, the fitment would be better...I think. What's you thoughts on that?

 

That could work. Since youre only 1.5 lower. If you go lower you can always add spacers. Whatever floats your boat man lol. How deep are the lips on the 9.5?

 

Lips on the 9.5 are 2.75" according to VarrsToen. DarksideG35 is the user that has inspired me to go with the ES 1.1.2. Here is the link to his thread.

To me that stance is sick! Im aware that he is lowered on springs and is running a 35 series tire. Where as I would prefer to run a 40 series. He states that the specs are 19x9.5/10.5 +12. Which looks good to me. Thanks for answering my questions so far SUMATIC. I wanna make sure I do this right.

 

Looks good. You should go for it. Sucks cant get the 10.5. Would be better in a staggered set. But like you said you can get a lower offset in the rear to get it staggered.

 

Yeah that does suck. I might get lucky and catch a set in the classifieds. Either way this is definetly the direction I wish to take my G. I just PM'd VarrsToen here on driver. Thanks again man!

 

No prob man. Get those pics up when your wheels are on.
