are u really trying to fit those with the spacers? please telling me your just using the size for a guide and you have something way more heinous to come... or your ditching the 20mm spacers. your pretty much building a car around your wheels. haha

Well Im going to be using this setup for the summer at the minimum. The reason for the spacer is becuase of how i want to run these the rear would have been more sunk then the front so i got spacers to kick them out more. It will be nice cause in the long run i can fit bigger sizes to. But yes I will be building the car around this setup but making it this wide my options in the long run will be pretty much endless.

I would have loved to have wider te37s but besides the te37 sl's I dont believe te37s come any wider or low offset in an 18 but i could be wrong. Plus i dont have time to wait for diffrent wheels atm I swore to myself that Id have the car ready for the summer and that I would actually drive it this summer lol.

I cannot begin to imagine what it'll take to build your car that wide. Looking forward to seeing how you handle it.

I just can't see it with the 275's all around and the 20mm spacers out back... I guess I would have leaned more towards a 9.5 +22 front and then you wouldn't have needed the spacers out back to balance the stance, but that's just me. Definitely looking forward to seeing the finished product though

Idk about those spcaers, seem uneccesary. That width and offset is pretty solid as it is.

The 275s look decent in person . This setup gives me alot of room for future crazier setups

I tried without the spacers and the rear was wayyy more sunk then the front it looked rly rly bad.
After its done im doing arp extended studs so itll be much stronger and safer.
