I am new to this forum (though i read alot from here) and i am new to mod cars too...

Just very happy to get my wheels from VMR and got them installed last night.
Very nice wheels.

One problem i found out that my front wheels are out from the fender now or just on the same line with the outter part of the fender... i am going to lower my car soon (0.5" to 1"), i am worry if then will hit the fender or not...

any advise? wheel size is 19X8.5 ET35

Lowering your car will also add camber so the top of the wheel will move in more towards the top. We have already test fitted this wheel on this vehicle without a problem. Unless your alignment is totally screwed up, you could have excessive positive camber.

so your car is only with sport suspension?
the wheel looks super nice and clean...

how has the ride changed since you switched to 19's? I know it's probably a bumpier...but is it unbearable?

a little bumpier and a little louder, but they are totally bearable, esp when turning corners with that kind of grip, it pays off already~

The ride comfort is barely noticeable really... I don't even pay attention when im in friends cars with 19".

I've gone from stock 16s that came with the car to 20s in street that suck in PA. I must say the difference between 18/19/20 isnt much, I think the suspension is the key ingredient to what ride your going to have. Going from your stock 17s up to a 19s won't be a big difference, go for it.
