Finally got them installed after a near disaster with fitment. Size is 18x9.5+45. Went with 275/35 PS4S.
Thoughts?

so what ended up being the issue? I have BC Forged wheels and their location is just a couple miles down the road from me.

when the shop initially tried to put them on they were too snug. They measured them and believed them to be machines too small. After talking with BC they’re machined to be snug the first time and you need to tighten them with the lug nuts to get them on the hub fully. They ship had never experienced it before.

Congrats Gforce, car looks fantastic. Very glad to see the issue with the BC wheels was resolved. That would have been a major bummer.

While I'm not a big fan of black wheels, with the polished lip they look nice and the offset appears correct.

Thank you! I wanted to retain the black as I actually love the OEM look but do something different than the other guys (the polished lip). Glad you guys like it!

I'm wondering if I have the room for a drop? Thinking the Eibach's that drop 0.6"? How would I know if they would not rub?

They will probably rub. Titans run +45 and max recommended size for lowered is 265/35-18

So far so good. I’ve pushed the car hard and some nice dips and no running that I’ve noticed yet.
