Yessir stock suspension! Adding swift springs soon

Nice. Do you think the +42 offset can still clear this (ie no poke) with stock suspension?

I’m now currently on 18x9.5 +39, with 275/35 RT615K+’s. Lowered on Swift springs.

There are a lot of narrow wheels in this thread so I figured I'd share my setup.

18x11 ET44 Apex Arc-8
285/30R18 RE-71RS
Ballade Front Camber Plates (~-2.5°)
Swift Lowering Springs

There's more poke than I'd ideally want (ultimately this is the set I'll use when I go further with coils and rear camber), but so far no rub even with the poke, even at autocross.

Beefy!

I’ve been eyeing the 57DR on your site but I feel that I would regret the offset. Is there a reason why they went with +38 instead of something over +40? I want to wrap it with 275/35r18 and lower it with Swift or Spoon springs.

Should I risk it with that wheel or save up more money to get CE28 or TE37 with a +4X offset?

I am planning on running this exact set up, i already have the Spoon springs. Did it work without any rubbing and without any further modifications?

Anyone using SSR three piece wheel?
Wondering which disk have the brake clearance for the oem front brake.
Considering SSR GTX01RS 19" 10j 37 normal disk but not sure it have enough brake clearance.

You'll likely need the medium disk (MD) to clear the brakes and get a high enough offset to actually fit the car. Reach out to SSR USA, they're usually pretty responsive.

I'm running SSR PROFESSOR SP7 19x9.5 +43 normal disk on Eibach Sportline springs with the stock PS4S.

This looks pretty good. My wheels just showed up and I don't plan on spending money on tires right now so I've got time to make a decision since I'm very hesitant on lowering my car. I've had many in the past but as I get older, I find myself not wanting to deal with the decreased ride quality even though I love the look of tire against fender.

Back and forth.

Same. No way I want to lower mine. I think it looks pretty decent with the slightly taller tire.

Get some good coilovers. Properly set up you will have a much better ride/look then stock suspension.
