Just mounted my new forgelines I bought from Raymonds performance

First off I would like to thank Bruce from Raymonds performance for the forgeline rims and tires he sold me...thank you. And second I would like to say man I'm completely amazed that these 305 30s on 19 10.5s fit. on these pfadt coilovers wihtout having to change out the springs like everyone original thought you had to do on here. I will post up pictures as soon as possible.

Some will say they do not "fit". As much as I like aggressive offsets, they stick out a little too much for my taste. The good news is the car likely will handle better...

Surprised to read you have coilovers. Quite the gap there, but I'm sure they handle great.

It's only a 3'' gap in the fronts and a 2 1/2'' gap in the rear if you call that quite the gap. This new look over all rims and tires gives it more of a race look if you ask me. I love it!!!

The wheels & tires look superb. I'm pretty sure they fit with the "stock" Pfadt springs cause of the 10.5" wide wheels. Any wider and you'd need to change to the shorter springs like I had to.

I don't think they stick out too much at all. You can get them to "tuck in" a bit if you dial in more negative camber up front.

What tires are you running?

That's a huge gap in the wheel wells. Looks bigger than stock even with your coilovers. Wheels look good just look really tiny, lol.

There Michelin super sport ps2's and like I said before its only a. 3" gap from the fender to the tire just looks big in the pictures doesn't look as bad in person. Lost 45lbs of weight total with this setup over my stock setup to. The handling is way different now.

Like the design. But something looks a little wonky here.

3" seems like a lot though, especially since you have the coilovers. I can't even imagine how much it would resemble an offroad vehicle without them lol.

The owner of this car is a friend of mine. Just saw his ride and the pictures do no justice. In person it looks race ready. The picture seem to make it look like you have a tone of wheel clearance from the fenders. Which in fact, in person it looks like a stock height compared to my stock SS.

Yeah, it's weird how the pictures seem to exaggerated the wheel well space. It's the same phenomenon as my 19" Forgelines. The pics turn out with more 'gap' than in real life.
