H&R drops too low on aftermarket wheels in my opinion, and not sure if it will rub or not since the te37sl fitment is pretty aggressive

i like how dinan drop and improve the ride at the same time

Agreed. Although the lower the drop, the more negative camber you'll get so rubbing may not be an issue. But I'd much prefer the Dinan setup anyways.

sure - I don't have any straight on (which is what would be most helpful) but here are a couple different views and I'll get something better up soon. Hope this helps

This is 19x9 square ET 25 - but I'm running a 5mm spacer in the front making the front ET 20 - I'm going to test a 10mm later in the week on the front and put the 5mm in the rear. I "think" it's going to be a bit too much poke but I won't know for sure until I take the 20 mins in the garage and try it out

Looking good! My fronts will be a 9.5 +23 and looks like it will work fine. Will post pics once its on but probably won't be until March 2021 as it takes 3 months from Japan to come in.

I'll have pics in Feb 21'ish once the wheels come in from Japan. With your setup, may look better with spacers on the rear.

Cool, I'll keep an eye out for them. I'm definitely not apposed to running spacers as long as I can make the wheels work. I think the fronts are a gamble though

These should fit no problem. There is a .3mm difference in the outer edge between my 19x9 +29 front compared to a 20x9.5 +35. On the inside, however, you will see the wheel 12mm closer to the strut - not really an issue.

I don't think those offsets are correct.

What I ordered is +22/+35.

For sure, I'm lowering my car at the same time as I install the wheels. Can't wait!

I'm actually going a bit conservative. doing volk te37 ultra m-specs 19x8.5s +38 all around. Im pretty sure I'm going to need to run a 10-12mm spacer in the front since the original off set of the 8x19 is +27.

I already lowered my car on Dinan springs and it is definitely more on the conservative side between H&R and Dinan. I should be getting my set in January so another couple months before I can get it mounted and fitted.

Hey u got any pics of the wheels. I'm bought 20x9 front. 20x10 rear. Wanted to see how the 10.5 was in rear. Plus just would love to see how sick it looks. What size tires you running. 235/265.
