Let me know if you encounter scraping issues since you run lower profiles w/ swifts you are about 1 inch lower than me.

May have to copy you.

Only on some driveways (like yours

) but it's only when I forget to attack at a really sharp angle. If you stick with 40 series tires (45 front, 40 rear) you'll probably save a bunch on install costs and have less scraping issues. That's what I'm gonna do for my next set if they're available in those sizes.

Yeah, I plan to go 245/40/18 F and 265/40/18 R - keeps the OEM sidewall sizes so speed won't be off and car won't even be lower.

It's all gonna end up costing me:

1100.00 - tires
90.00 - mount and balance
90 - alignment
200 - spacers

Looks great B1ades

I like how you painted it too. Now just get those HFCs installed. +1 (my rep will be blank)

The PSS's don't come with 275/40's.

265 would be a better fit - less buldge with 40' series anyway.

Thanks Jon! Not many things left for me to do in terms of mods. Still want to eventually get my roof wrapped with black vinyl, get an UpRev tune, and last will probably oil cooler+brake pads so I can finally track it.
