Currently lowered on H&R springs, but will get some coilovers/camber plates (H&R or Fortune Auto) next winter. Ideally, want a wheel setup that will look good and work with either suspension component with little adjustment. This is just used for street driving - maybe 1 auto-x a year.

Leaning towards:
F: 18x9 et42, with 245/40/18
R: 18x10 et25, with 275/35/18
With Michelin PSS', Hankook V12 Ventus, or something similar.

David at Apex said: "They'll work as long as you use a street tire in the 245/40/18 tire size, since the tire will be slightly stretched. If you use an extreme summer tire such as a Hankook RS-3 or Dunlop Star Spec, you may need a small 3mm spacer so that the tire doesn't rub on the strut."

Should I stick with the planned setup?
Should I drop to a 18x8.5 in front (and if so, what tire size)?
I have the 18X9 +42 with 245/40-18 PSS in the front and 18X10 +25 with 275/35-18 in the rear. I have no suspension mods of any kind, and no rubbing issues in over 10K miles. If you are looking for the most agressive fitment without any hassle then this is it!

Hope this helps!
