Ultra Staggered VB3s with H&R springs

JPWEraser · 02-23-2011, 01:41 PM

Anyone have any experience with this setup? I am considering the wider ultra staggered setup on VB3s and some H&R springs; would like to know if there are any known rubbing issues with this setup? Tires would be Falken 452s in 275/30/19 for the rear and 245/35/19 for the front. Thanks in advance!

rears will fit, not sure about fronts

I ran this exact set up with no issues.

the pics I added show:
Ultra staggered VB3's 19x10 et25 with 275/30/19 and 19x8.5 et40 with 245/35/19
lowered on H&R springs

When I traded the H&R springs for a GC coilover kit and lowered the car 1.5", the rears rubbed the plastic fender lining a little when the suspension was under full compression. This would not happen very often

Amazing. Thank you!

Purchased the same thing, hopefully here in a week. Though I went with 9.5 front, as I wanted concavity there as well. I will post some pics for you once they're on.

Where did you get the 19x10 +25s from? I was told by a vendor that they were on manufacturer backorder.

Search/PM david @ eas (european auto source) to see if he can hook you up w/ any remaining wheels. I do know that the 8.5 fronts were out of stock, which led me to the 9.5 front purchase. I got mine custom painted though, so perhaps that could have something to do w/ the unavailability of the 8.5 in a raw finish or something, not sure how they do that.

Hope that helps, GL!
