You know what guys, im still in the dark about all this. I like Car Mads look, and I dont want to be messing about with the arches. I will take a nice non rubbing fit that will look as agressive as possible if possible.

 

Suspension wise I have Tein Monoflex EDFC

depends how low you go, how much tyre stretch, how much camber... etc...

for a properly aggressive stance you would run a low offset similar to j1mmytt's and then run a bit of camber and tyre stretch to make it fit.

Offsets vs Widths is pretty much spot on. Your just on the limit.....and with the correct size tyres it will be be a nice aggressive stance.

 

Those tyres are narrow for the widths of your wheels though. You dont need the stretch to make them fit, just wasting the wheel width by going for narrower tyres.

To give you an idea, to base wheel sizes on.

 

8.5" front wheel - Ideal offset 22

9.5" Rear wheel - Ideal offset 35

 

using the correct size tyres on the above setup is about the max you can go on stock arches.

 

You can use this calculator tool, to compare different widths and ofsets to the above : http://www.1010tires.com/WheelOffsetCalculator.asp

i think thats the most sensible advice to take... there are some wild ideas being thrown around in this thread but the ultimate goal is the best looking on stock arches. i run basically the same as daves (legrath) guide. if you start pushing the boundaries to make it look good by playing with camber and tyre widths your going to sacrifice handling... there are cars for show... and there are cars for go... i think i have an idea what category yours should fall in!

Yup, Legrath is spot on. Similar to mine. I run rr 9.5, offset is +35 and fr 8.5 with an offset of +20

The sizes above are the ones to go for. With a tyre size of 285 rear 245 on the front. Like mine and Si's i would say its the max you can get on stock arches and it looks spot on with a chunky wide tyre.

 

A stretched 255 etc just looks pants imo:huh:

Been lowerd since so there is 1cm gap at the top looks just right just to give an idea

If you look at the two. my pic was taken before i had the camber sorted and i was also running 275's which you can see still look stretched compaired to Si 285. which i am now running :cool:

your pics show a 285 on a 9.5j and j1mmytt's pics show 255 on a 9.5j and IMO the stretched 255 looks much nicer :)
