Any pics looking down the side? It almost looks like the tires are outside the wheel wells.

i went with the Rays suggested 10j front and 11j rear or these are the only set they have in stock. i am pretty lucky for they usually need at least 3 months to arrive from ordering. looks badass and no clearance issue at all. photos taken from the top as best i could to show nothing sticking out at all. they are very nice setup.

Any plan to lower your car ?
I thought about it, but putting in H&R springs would be too bumpy, & going for KW coilover would lose the OEM EDC. So, stay put for now.

i am not going to lower the car coz i rather drive the car hard than rubbing the wheel well after lowering. eventhough if there are no rubs, i had very negative experiences with aftermarket springs or coilovers. the car need thes travel range for the suspensions to work properly. lowering is purely for looks in my opinion.
