I just recieved my wheels from Japan this week.
Specs:
Front: 18x8.5 +40mm Tires: 235/40/18 Rubs plastic piece when turning hard. I suggest getting a 35 series. Possibly 245/35/18, which is what eastondle recommended me.
Rear: 18x9.5 +34mm Tires: 275/35/18 Fenders not rolled. Does rub fender when hitting bumps. Need to raise car 1/2-1 inch more. However, 265/35/18 might help.

I got my wheels in last night after 8 months of waiting. They turned out to be not exactly what I was wanting, but I guess they'll be ok. And one of them had a nick in it already, but they'll get messed up anyway so I'm not sweating it. I test fit them last night, and they come right to the edge of the fender, so I see some rolling and slimmer tires than expected in my future, haha.

What do you mean they weren't exactly what you were wanting? Wrong wheels?

So you're the one we saw parked at the UC Davis parking lot. We were driving by one night and I saw this big supra wing, I thought it was a Civic at first but I looked a little harder and was like, 'hey, it's an FD'. Jdawg707 made a post in the west forum a while back asking who'se the red FD with the Supra wing in Davis but we got no reply.
