are those VS-XXs? what tires are you using to get that much stretch?

looks hot, but prolly pushing it a tiny bit with the spacers in the rear.

They're Stitch Gulf, similar to the VS-XX. I'm running 205 Falken Ziex right now. I agree with you about the spacer though. The negative camber I added helped a lot so it doesn't look so bosozoko, but the wheels I'm getting next are a slightly higher offset and bigger so I can tuck tire without losing my tranny.

I found them on RBwheels.com and then had them refinished. There's only like 4 other sets that I know of in the states, but they're all different size/offset. I'm on my way to pick up my new wheels right now, so they will be for sale soon.

there are way more than 4 sets of stich gulf in the states (especially in other sizes/offsets). You can find a lot of them on Zilvia.

I think that setup would have looked good with a 255/225 setup and you wouldn't have needed those spacers.

I know there is more, but I was referring to only what I've seen(same model). A lot of the Stitch Gulfs on Zilvia are more VIP style. I picked up my new wheels today so these are history as of now anyways. Just posted for fun.

there are quite a few 9/8 +35 setups in 17"

It's not that difficult.
