I've wanted to contribute to this thread for years, so here we go.
Three piece Gotti 150 wheels
Front:15x7 et31 with an 8mm spacer up front for a final offset of +23
Rear: 15x8 et30 with a 15mm spacer in the rear for a final offset of +15
Tires are Toyo Proxes T1R 195/45 on all four corners
Suspension:
Fronts: Ground Controll coilover sleeves maxed out on stock length strut housings and IE camber plates
Rears: IE Stage 2 springs with one coil trimmed off and Bilstein sports on 2 dot pads
No rubbing even at full lock, which was very surprising considering the BBS RSs I had on there before with stock suspension did rub (but also had larger S-Drives). I'd like the rear to come down another hair so will probably opt for 1 dot pads in the future. Fronts can't get much lower without shortening the stut housing, which I may consider at some point but for now, it's close enough.
The car has a ways to go, but at least I'm about 95% happy with the way she sits now. The last 5% is always the trickiest though, as I'm sure we all know.
Looks good to me?

Damn that turned out good. Congrats, I still need to make it there to check it out.

You definitely have put a lot of work in it. But when it's all done, it will be well worth it

Absolutely

Turning out pretty good. Yeah it's pretty warm today, be sure to drink lots of water. I need to stop by there one of these days to get the full display of the paint booth?

H&R springs, bilstein HDs, yoko s drives 195/50/15.
First pics are corrado steelies 15x6 et 35
they rubbed on the inside when turning hard & compressing the front end.
second set is RH 15x7 et 25. The front passenger rubs on the fender when turning, I’m going to roll the lip and hope for the best for now.
Looks good with the RH. Maybe run a smaller tire and it might not rub.

yeh so it will be a bit wide at the rear but a bit of camber and a light hammering of the gaurds should make room
Can't wait to see the end product

Currently sitting on custom coilovers, lenghty studs 15mm spacers and much knuckle-skin, blood and sweat
wheels are 15x7 et 65ish up front and 43et at the back, about a 2inch deep magnesium face so thats why i have the 110mm studs.
will be converting this to air ride very soon, just need to work out how to actually do the rears
Car looks great, have always loved those wheels.

75 2002
currently sitting on 15x8 +25 with spacers and 195/50/15 tyres
billy sports, h&r springs and rpm adjustable top mounts up front.
i have a new set of wheels 15x8 +17 and i want to put 205/50/15 r888 on as im not a fan of the stretch look.
i know theres not really a clear answer but is rolling the gaurds enough to fit 205's under?
or is more modification required? looking at getting the gc adjustable spring kit front and back soon.
cheers
matt
What size of spacers did you use? I would love to see more pics of your setup, on your car.
