clean clean clean! love the 2nd setup and i think you made a good choice. Your first set was nice too but just didn't seem to suit the colour of the car as much. Nice work

both new and old set up look great. for whatever reason, your CE28s look like they're 19s instead of 18s...

It's so unfortunate that you have to run ridiculous suspension settings to make those wheels and tires work...

The car looks so damn good but I don't know how you justify spending thousands of dollars on wheels and suspension just to run them at less than ideal settings to make them fit.

I had the same wheels... size and offset.. I think the reason being that they look like 19s is because the way the spokes cave in. On the 18" size, CEs only cave in at the +22(which DO NOT CLEAR the Brembos) and +15. I ran the same tire as well but my car was not as slammed(Swift MR Springs on MR Bilsteins) and less camber.

I agree, the wheels alone are expensive and not to mention the Coils. I took the cheaper route and ran the same wheels on Swift Springs. The car looked good but I didn't like the stretched tire(ran a 245/35) too much and heavy wear due to camber settings. So I sold them and now getting ready to order a set of RE30s, same size but +28 so I can run a 265.

I think at this offset and size, they would fit alot easier on a X but you did it right... your car looks great man.

How bad was the tire wear im not sure i wanna go as crazy as you guys did but im intrested in something along the lines and hope i can still get some miles out of the tires $640 for a set of star specs is killer on my wallet
