For those with 18's..

1) What wheel & tire size do you currently have?
2) What is your offset?

Bonus questions:
3) a. What springs did you choose?
b. Any rubbing?
4) How much room between the tire and the rear shock?

Kinda OT, but you don't have the distance from the center of each fender to the ground with your springs, do you?

You've never seen hydraulic pumps??? I thought everyone had seen hydros at one point in time or another. You know, Dr Dre, Snoop Dogg. "Rollin on the east side of the LBC."

I have 18x7.5 40mm adr reactions with 225/40/18zr toyo proxes and have not installed aerospeed springs yet. I hope I can get at least 1.75 inches because I have plenty of room.
