Those look like 19" Diablos, I'd guess you'd need to get the arches rolled with 19's, no matter what the offset. I have 18's with a 45mm offset and a 30mm drop, running 215/35/18 tyres and I don't get any rubbing.

The offset of my 19" diablos are 52mm, but scoty who used to have the same wheels were 45mm, anything from 45-52mm should be fine..

My car is not lowered and i dont get hardly any rubbing unless the car is full..

Unhappy

Mikey999...what springs have you fitted to lower it by 30mm?
I have just fitted some Eibachs (they are said to lower by 30mm)but i am not very happy because the car rides higher than the standard WRX springs!!
I have been told that in reality Eibachs only lower by 10mm...a case for the trade description Act??..could i get a refund?

Sorry to high jack your thread.

steve.
