Now contemplating spacers or adjustable to fix rear gap left to right as right rear seems to sit lower than left for some reason. Go for it!
Sames sizes I ran in this year's One Lap with the same minor, non-consequential rubbing.

Thank you sir. At the time I was thinking of buying Apex wheels but ended up going with BBS RG-R. Unfortunately the fronts are 19x8.5" so I'm sticking with stock sizes for now. They only offered 19x9 in et20 and in Diamond Black which is too aggressive especially for wider than stock tires like 265 fronts. Still great info if I go back to stock wheels.

Neil,

Please tell me what suspension you have with them. I am thinking of switching to the H&R adjustable versus the stock.

Cheers!
