HS V810 as the sun falls

Had a bit of time tonight and wanted some pictures with the new wheels + tires on the car. Sadly I'm a shit photographer and it's made even worse when I forget my tripod in my rush to beat the sunset as I left. Really wasnt enough light out there for these hand held shots...

18x8.5 et35 w/ 245/40-ZR18 Michelin PSS @ -1.50° camber, minor rub full left lock
18x10 et25 w/ 275/35-ZR18 Michelin PSS @ -1.00° camber, zero rubbing

Very nice, can't go wrong with those style wheels. I see you couldn't wait until Spring, no problem with that! I've got a bunch of stuff piling up in basement right now waiting for Spring, oddly enough I don't have that much of a burning desire to install it all right now. ;P

Enjoy, they look great!

Thanks for the comment, and no, I could definitely not wait for spring :P If I didnt have the e30 to winter daily I might have been able to resist, but I do, so I didn't!

Great choice of wheels. I wonder what different tire size up front would reduce the slight rubbing on full lock turn to the left? 245/35? 235/40? Is it the width or height of the tire?

I think its the width, and may be particular to my car despite having replaced all the wheel well trim. I had the same result when I tried 12.5mm spacers on stock wheels/tire sizes

I know it sux mate, but have you thought of going 235 up the front? Car looks great mate, very nice. Perfect match for your colour coupe.

Not going to bother, the fitment overall is great and the rub is so minor its not worth the downgrade. Very happy with the setup so far!
