I was looking at TE's first, but there are soo many builds with those, and in every color possible too.
Do you have any pics of your car on CE's?

I had the CE's on a evo9

I think you might need -6 to get them sitting right with full suspension articulation lol

Hey Steve, I have reviewed this forum a thousand times wondering this same question since I recently ordered tires and wheels . What I found is that some guys are running UP TO a 285/35/18 tire with no rubbing with wheels 18x9.5 +45 wheels. Even System Motorsports confirmed on Page 6 and 7 of this thread it was not rubbing. I ended up ordering 275's as well. I am going to run a HR springs with it.

EDITED NOTE: I just noticed you mentioned with Spoon springs, I dunno. Someone else is going to have to chime in on those with that 275 setup. I think the Spoon is bigger drop than HR spring.

Looks cool as heck but maybe offset +45 would have been better?
