How is the fitment; no rubbibng? I'm planning on running a similar setup - 18x9.5 +40 with either 245/40/18 or 255/35/18. I'm also currently on lowering springs

Update: coilovers installed and still no rubbing at all. the rear ride height is set at the lowest possible position, and the fronts have been adjusted to match. Don't want to get too off topic, but I am really happy with the suspension. Performance is great, and ride comfort is just as good as OEM in my opinion. I'll post about it more in depth whenever I get around to starting my build thread. Here's a cell pic of how she sits at this very moment. I'll take some better(see: attempt to) shots with my real camera some time this week.

Thank you! I'm super pumped on it. I really love the whole wheel/tire fitment and stance of the car in general, it was exactly what I was going for and imagined in my head.

I'm running ST Suspension STX coilovers. I had originally planned to do Bilstein B14 PSS coilovers, but a local guy that I know had the STX coilovers for sale for $300 bucks and I just couldn't pass that up. I didn't give the STX coilovers much thought to be honest, but after I bought them and did some research and was super impressed. ST Suspensions is owned by KW, and the STX coilovers are the exact same as KW Variant 1's. Same shocks and springs, same valving, literally the exact same coilovers, the only difference is the STX coilovers have zinc plated steel shock bodies, and the KW V1's are stainless steel(Inox is the trademark name for the proprietary alloy that KW developed for it). These are probably better performing than the Bilstein's in all honesty. I have the ride height on the rears completely maxed out on the lowest setting possible, and the fronts are adjusted to match. Went to have it aligned and everything remained in the specified range except for the toe on the front axle was out slightly. So that's a plus as well.

19x8.5 RS wheels with 20 mm spacers front/rear. 235/35r19 tires. I had the wheels on for a week before I got the spacers. Glad I did, these wheels need spacers. Looks much better now. Got the whole package from CJ pony parts, they are having a big sale right now on RS wheels.

So this is with spacers? It's so strange to me how offset works on different wheel widths...the math is one thing but in reality, you'll never know til you try it i guess. Those are lookin pretty good ?

YESSS Badass man! My only thoughts are possible a slightly larger tire, can't remember but was thinking a 235/40/19 or maybe it was a 240/35/19... Idk, I could lougle it but im lazy!

Thanks yes 20mm spacers all around. It is hard to judge just looking at pictures and doing the math. Without spacers the wheels were very tucked in.

Here are some other shots I just took. Apologies as the first photo kind of has a weird angle and the curb cuts off the wheels. I should also mention that I am still on stock suspension, so no change there (yet). I'll probably throw on some BC or ST coilovers in the future.

18x8.5 avant garde m310 w/ 42 offset on 2016 ST

I just want to say thanks to Jason at getyourwheels.com. Completely legit. Shipped on day he said they would and arrived when he said they would. Excellent condition.

Thanks Jason.

stock Goodyear f1 summer tires, car is still very new. 1/2 inch wider wheel than stock provided just the right amount of stretch for me
