I just purchased Falkin 205/40/17 512 tires for the wheels. Do you think this would give me adaquate stretch?
Love your set up BTW. I'm actually getting my wheels machined to be et25.

What tires? Most 205/40's won't do much stretching on a 8" wheel
205/40 falken 452 et30 - really barely worth calling a stretch:
Really don't have a picture that shows it very well. You have to kind of take my word on it.
Sounds like you are trying to be about an inch lower then me. If that is the case you are going to definitely want some camber front and rear and a 205 that stretches well like the falken 512.

Just installed my BC Racing BR's with Swift Springs. Sitting on Enkei PF01 17x7 et45. Hankook Ventus Evo V12 205-45-17
Wheels do not require spacers!
Coilovers are set to about 1/4" above lowest ride height in the front (with no preload), and 3/8" above lowest in the back (also no preload). I'm pretty surprised how low they go, considering what people have said about the BC's. I think I might raise the front a bit, lots of rake right now.

Well whenever you're back down this way, hit me up if you wanna hang out and shoot some photos of your car. It looks great and I'd love to see it in person and hang out

Just installed Megan Racing coilovers, set at just below the middle of the adjustment, no spring preload. Konig Swurve 18x7.5 on Kumho 215/35/18 all season tires.
Might take it just a little lower...but want to see how things settle in first. So far VERY happy with the ride quality, just finished the install a couple hours ago. Better pics to come but I wanted to show off NOW
