Finally got my wheels in! I love everything about them so far. Now they are off to ceramic coat. Should have it all back together and on and get to drive this bad boy.

A couple of questions for you. Are you lowered and if so, what springs? Do you think you could fit 265/35 tires on this setup either lowered or not lowered? I want these same size wheels and I am not currently lowered, but I worry about 255 tires. On my STI, I had 9.5 wheels with 255 tires and the outer lip of my wheels got beat up with rock chips all along the outside. Maybe it was the tires I was using (Continental DWS) because it looks like your 255's might cover the outer lip better though.

Yea I’m lowered on eibach pro kit so roughly .8 to an inch drop. It doesn’t rub at all but I was worried it would if I went 265. It might work but I didn’t want to take the chance.

Thanks. Do you feel like your tires protect the outer lip of the wheel enough? The pics look like they do, but just wanted to make sure.

Those Michelins look ok, but other tires can be narrower with the same spec. I tried 255/35-18 Firehawk Indy 500 on the same wheel (although +35 offset but shouldn't matter) and it was super stretched, the lip poked out quite a bit. I would do at least 265 wide tire on a 9.5" wheel.

Is there a benefit ordering these through a seller like Vivid Racing as opposed to just preordering them with Titan-7? Will shops like this give a better deal? Any advice is appreciated

Personally, I ordered 19x9.5 straight from Titan 7 last week and they were here three days later. Direct and fast.

RavSpec was a little less than $200 cheaper when I contacted them.

I don't see any screws on the front license plate. How is it attached to the bumper?
