^ the best fit and look I have seen. Very well selected.

Thanks Scotty! It does get a lot of looks on the road now, my son is 13 and thought it was so cool when we drove through a gas station parking lot and everyone was checking out the car and pointing. I have tint on it now and I think it looks even better... too bad I couldn't get pics with that on, it's been raining nonstop here :cursing:

Anyhoo, not to hijack the thread, but thank you for the kind words!

If you have no rubbing problems, then this looks like about as good as you can get for a drop and big wheel/tire set-up. Well done!

Thanks Tom! They don't rub, but I think they are about as close as you can get in the front.

Hi Max,
Are you saying that yours rub in the back? All the CRZ's use the same sheet metal regardless of color. If I read this corredtly, you are tunning 18x9" wheels with a 35 offset... Those wheels are a full inch wider than mine and offest 10mm more to the ouside, so they would stick out almost 1,5" farther than mine do, and I am pretty sure those would rub on my car too,

 

[roddy]

besides diameter, i'm running close to that size in the rear, but on different suspension.

max looks like you're running stock height? more info please. more pictures too.

Had 20mm spacers on back for a while, but didn't like the rub during large dips or bumps so have recently removed them. Continuing to lower again without spacers, but haven't found the correct height yet.

NOTE:
Rubbing in the rear seems to be primarily due to the rear fender securing screw mount at the top of the wheel well. This is problematic even when/if trying to roll them as the large piece of plastic holding the rear bumper will need to be pushed out quite a bit or ground down which is not ideal. This does not exist in the front fender well and should not be an issue if front rolling is necessary.

Hoi, i ran a 235 and felt some rubbing when going over bumps at fukk lock. The rubbing was at the front fender liner at about the 2o clock position drivers side theres a boxy chunk that comes out. I think it was that. Do you have any issues?

No I don't have any rubbing in either front well yet. I'll have to go check out the 2 o'clock area. Still need to do a final drop after removing the rear spacers and then sync the front. Will post final height after.

Question Peeps, I want to go with the widest tire on my stock rims. I have the 16" base wheels, Any ideas Thanks Chaz

 

[northbridge]

tirerack.com - they will break it all down for you. pick a tire, look at the specs and it will tell you the min and max width wheel it will fit on. unwise to run a wide tire for no reason though. the crz doesnt need super amounts of grip. (that cant be obtained with a stickier compound vs a wider and heavier tire)

btw this is a wheel fitment thread, not one for tires. fftopic:

edit : why my picture never appear?
I first host them on flickr; didnt work.
Now on photobucket, dont work either...

 

[hotboxn]

are you clicking the image code to get the image to appear? looks like mountains w/ a moon and yellow sky in the reply box.

 

[DAGCRZ]

Yess.
at first, by hosting my image on flickr, the url of the picture was ending by something like .../18374650.
Then I look at the html code source of the forum page and notice that the url of the image posted by the others were coming from photobucket and ended by something like .../93746263.jpg
So I tought I needed to have the url direct from the jpg files, did it with photobucket, and don't work!

 

[TinTin]

i host all my pics on flickr. they work flawlessly.
