So from what youre saying, i'll be like half an inch or less from the suspension ?? yikes haha, at least it'll look good .. btw, do you think it'll poke out a lot ? I just have natural camber cuz i'm a cheapo and dont wanna buy a camber kit :D

with you sitting at only a 2.5" drop, it'll ook funny because you aren't low enough.

to run flush wheels and looks good you need to be dropped at least 3 inches

I test fitted the wheels, and they're pretty much tucked .. i can't have them on yet without a roll and pull tho .. So I'm guessing I'm more than 2.5" from what you're saying if i'm able to tuck them. i'm assuming that i'm able to tuck because we lowered the jack and the tire was less than a cm from touching the fender .. and yet the jack wasn't lowered all the way O_O

EDIT: Btw mild, is that your 11 +27 setup ?

So I don't want to sound like a fool or anything, but I was wondering if 18x9 +35 Rota IK-R's would look ridiculous on a sedan (2000 Accord LX)

(do those rims even get made that big?)

^ those Roma would look sweet on the accord. Just make sure you run a 215/40 or 225/40 tire and at least dropped 3 inches.
