Message I know this has been asked on the daily but I have searched and used the faqs.

First off, doing the math 18x8.5 +35 F | 18x9.5 +35 R

8.5 x 25.4 = 215.9mm
215.9 / 2 = 107.95mm
107.95 - 35 = 72.95mm
215.9 - 72.95 = 142.95mm

72.95 - 72.95 = (+/-)0mm

9.5 x 25.4 = 241.3mm
241.3 / 2 = 120.65mm
120.65 - 35 = 85.65mm
241.3 - 85.65 = 155.65mm

85.65 - 72.95 = (+/+) 12.7mm

I have a 95 NA so I shouldn't have fitment issues with the wheels.

F 255/35ZR18 Kumho Ecsta ASX
R 275/35ZR18 Kumho Ecsta ASX

My question is, how much of a wheel gap will I possibly have with the tires on my wheels? Also what is the stock wheel gap w/o aging? I've searched but all I've found is after aging. I currently don't have access to my car to measure which is why I'm forced to ask.

I want to know if my KYB AGX / Eibach combo with my wheels and the Kumho tires will drop to a point that will cause even a slight rubbing.

Can KYB AGX's / Eibach be tracked or should I just get Tein SS Coilovers? I plan on tracking my car once I get my swap done.

Thanks in advance.
