Does it rub the rear fenders in hard cornering?
The car has not been lowered intentionally, though w/ over 60,000 miles and my fat ass weighing the car down I'm sure it has dropped somewhat. I have had absolutely no rubbing problems in the rear though they have been quite substantial (to the point that I've gone thru the fender liner) in the front.
And as for Ferrari man--I'm happy for you. As I have wind tunnel tests from Mugen that show the spoiler's effectiveness at speed, I'd rather have the spoiler that you don't like the looks of at the track than the one you do like the looks of.

Hey buddy, calm down, breath in, and now breath out. All i said was that the spoiler isnt nice. I didnt say its not effective, all i said was that its not nice, and it isnt. You also think that its not nice. So, calm down, and dont get your heart rate going over a car spoiler.

Still breathing, never stopped...never even frowned. I do think it's nice and I know it does what it was designed to do, unlike many other pieces out there.
Originally posted by 1Randyc Gregg sorry about offering up some photos of your wheel too late.
Folks this was taken at recent Richmond gathering.
I have to say his wheels look fantastic, especially when they are glistened by sunlight.
Absolutely gorgeous.

How much wider than the fenders does the tires go??
I have 8x18" ET 45 OZ Superleggera 225/40 front and they are about 1 cm outside the fenders and in the rear 9x18" ET 55 OZ Superleggera 255/35 they are about 0.5 cm outside the fenders.
This is odd...my rear tires are flush with the fender, and my fronts are very close to flush...probably within 0.5cm...
When you do lower the car, the wheels will tend to go negative camber and point diagonally in to the wheel well...but if you're going coilovers you'll have to be especially careful...
I can only relate my experience with KG/mm springs and that I've not had any rubbing scratching issues.
