Sometimes it's actually the area of the bumper that those clips grab onto that stretch or deform causing it to sag or not want to grab well.

Oh yeah, and I rubbed and the camber wear on the tires was ridiculous.

My advice, don't do it. That being said, here is a pic of 18x10 +44 235/40/18 on my car in the rear.

Adding spacers would lower the offset even more.

I would like to know the answer to this, because for some reason my 18x8 +28 with a wide 225/40 made contact with the little piece of sheet metal that you use to bolt the front bumper to the fender. It nearly took off my bumper.

Depends on the offset, tire size, and whether your fenders are rolled. But yes, 9.5 is possible. Look at the thread right below this one.

Roll your fenders as soon as you possibly can. Last thing you want to do is slice your tires which are already stretched and then have a blow out because your sidewall will pretty much go kaboom... Hah...

Oh yeah, for those that haven't seen my car before, those are 18x10 +44 in the rear with a 235/40/18 Volk GT-C's. Fronts are 18x8 +43 (+28 when I put spacers) and have a wide 225/40/18.

If anything, the spring rates would be different to make up for the differences in the weight of the vehicle. I don't think that the S-techs have different spring rates for the speed6 though? I know it's different for the 6i and the 6s though. As far as springs go, the s-techs give the most...

So that's what they look like on the car. When you were pm'ing me, I see now how you didn't have any problems test-fitting the 9.5/+25 wheels. It's been a while since I've been stock height so I didn't know you'd have that much room. Now all you need to do is buy some coilovers. Like I...

HRS 286-85 No Reconstruction Permit. It's a law enforced on Oahu that deals with modifications made to your car. Essentially, my problem was that my camber was too far out of stock specs and my car is too low. I had more typed out but then clicked to quote your reply and it all got erased.

I'm sure that most of the people in this thread have seen these pics before, but might as well put it in (even though it's a mazda6). 18x10 +44 235/40 Falken Ziex 512's (needs to be replaced) 18x8 +43 (+28 w/ 15mm spacer) 225/40 Federal 595's (usually one size wider than it's rated) Front...

Inner clearance in the front or rear? If in the rear, my set up is 26mm closer to the suspension components than the 18x9 +30 with I'm assuming a 225/40(cant read the rear tire sidewall)? My fronts (w/ no spacer) have identical backspacing.

I like to rub one off every now and then. Wait what?

So there's like 4 people in this thread that are going to go flush? Where's all the pics?

You've got my attention.

I'm curious to know what kind of specs (wheel, tire sizes, lowering method, camber settings, etc.)you're going for... my car is pretty hellafail (lol), but I drive a 6s not a ms6... Pics of fail

If you're going with performance, just do a 18x8 with 245's. The extra rim width won't really do much as far as gaining you extra space for wider tires. In theory, it'll only be extra weight. Unless you want to do 255's on a 8.5", then you'll need a higher offset. Of course, if it's also...
