haha but i have a garage and i need to be able to go up that. also im not the only one that drives the car. so yes i do have excuses haha. im going to measure it again on a flat surface, being parked on the road throws it a little off because of the road crown or something??? cause it's curved.

yeah but I got 18's and am running 45 on tire thickness.. and when I rolled them, they were good but still not as thin as i wanted. I got the results i wanted by cutting them.. it wansnt even too hard or anything.. just took an hour. I wish i could take good pics in the dark but I just gotta wait until tomorrow.

damn why you running a 45 sereis tire?

well when i bought the tires, i really had no intention of dropping the car. They arent too bad, just a little annoying cause the scrape the inside walls of the front wheel wells a little. New tires should be on the way soon but for now it looks good.. im tucking about an inch of tire all around. Just need to run in and get an alignment tomorrow.

Im just gonna be completely honest.. I Dont hear any. I heard that people do all the time but i still havent hear mine.. all i hear is nasty scraping when i turn the wheel. I think imm gonna raise it to 24 though.. maybe eliminate some of it.

wow really? You must drive really slow than i guess. If i hit dips and bumps and stuff going speed limit my control arms would hit my strut towers.

Maybe the new ERS springs are doing good! =)

would these fit on an 02 coupe

19x9.5 +22

you'll either need a 215/35 or a 225/35. I think someone tried to stretch a 215/35 on a 19x9.5 rim and he was having trouble with the bead setting on the rims.

But roll/pull your fenders and shave and relocate your bumper tab.
