**official aggressive wheel thread**

[krow]

The issue is the spring perch on the strut, on stock style struts, the perch is huge, the spring is huge and all that stuff takes up space. Coilovers are about 4" less wide, so it gives more clearance for wider wheels.

I was amazed at the size difference myself.

kool thank you, so once i lower my car the suspension wont be as wide i guess so it wont be as much. . . right?

if u lower w/ just lowering springs, u will still have the big lower spring perches which r part of the struts. to get more clearance on the suspension side u will need to go to full coilovers.

some pics that might help you compare...

here is the stock front strut w/ progress springs (JETBLACK's car):



here is the front TEIN SS-P coilover on my car:



notice the size difference:

what's the perfect offset for 18x7.5 235/40/18 to where someone would be flush but not rub?

i feel like either +33 or +38 would work nicely

you would have to roll rear fenders at +33mm (maybe even at +38 depending on the actual tires) if u didn't want to rub on compression... even more so if u camber correct.

Also if you stretch the tire with a little poke you might not need to roll the fenders much or at all.

are KYB AGX's the same size as the stock ones?

i wish i could ride that low

[Reelax]

are KYB AGX's the same size as the stock ones?

pretty much. they are stock replacements with adjustable dampening (rebound and compression).

[Reelax]

Also if you stretch the tire with a little poke you might not need to roll the fenders much or at all.

but he was asking about 235/40r18. w/ 225/40r18 he would probably clear w/o camber correction, again w/ camber correction he might still have to roll the fenders.
