    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.

    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.

    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

    What size of spacers did you use? I would love to see more pics of your setup, on your car.
