I now have the cross competion coilovers fom DMH. I had to use 8mm spacers on the Montegi's to clear the stoptec's and 5mm spacers with the SSR's again to clear the stoptec's.
I'm using 205/40/17 R-888's which put down 8" of tread width. There are no tyre rubbing issues at all.

I've been eyeing these, too, but I'm a little concerned with the quality as they're made in China. Do they use regular lug bolts or do they need tuner lugs?
Thanks for showing them on the car, I've been photochopping it to the pic of my car to see how they would look, but nothing beats real pictures.

Yokohama AVID w4s 205/40/17 et35 really wanted 30et but I was in a rush nothing a spacer cant fix 
I know what your thinking Wake 18x8.5 me too but not enough space to clear suspension components.
But I really gotta say RUNFLATS SUCK the ride quality,well at least to me is night and day so much more enjoyable. Might have to get some coilovers the M7 springs aren't convincing me too much well have to see how they settle in

have you had any trouble with the plastic tabs on the sport edition center caps breaking?
You used a sticker on the SE caps, no?
My SE wheels arrived with all but one cap with broken or missing tabs . . .
They are replacing them but wondering if this is a long term problem?
I got the mini wings from aesthetic creations . . .
