Thanks CB. Did you roll your guards yourself, using an actual guard rolling tool?

Cbauto did it with his best in market guard rolling technique

But really, guard roller will work, just heat up the paint abit and just ease it out towards the rear as it can push out the fender as cb said.I also found I had to grind the small metal and plastic tab sticking out in the wheel well at the rear as it seemed pretty close to the tyre if it were to be fully loaded.

Hey guys got a question about wheel setup for ep3

currently im running 17x7+45, 215/45/17 (which is the stock ep3 size)
Gonna get my coilovers soon and im planning to do a flush look so that means i will need a new set of rims ...

will 17x8+44 / +35 work on 215/45 tyres?
do I need to roll guard? and which works better? +44 or +35?
Should I do a flush look with Ce28 rims or fk tht lol?

thx

Go with 17 x 8 +35 or even more aggressive if u want it flush. Here's what it looks like and I rolled my guards as well. Wheels are also for sale.

Looks really great, i want to but x8.5 or 9 will scratch the suspension isnt it? And my tyre might not fit those size :S

You'll need to roll the guards; 8" +35 will be flush in the rear with 215/45, depending on how low you go you may want to run abit of camber to avoid scrubbing when going over dips/potholes/fatpeople, but the fronts you can go more aggressive.

There are people who stretch 195 tyres on 9 inch rims, tho its highly counterproductive and not recommended

Not gonna plan for super aggressive look, half finger length between the fender is enough
Thx for the tips tho :D

I've just been browsing around the web and it seems everyone has a RM01A.
Where does everyone get the system from?

If your lucky you'll find one second hand otherwise for much cheaper you can get a tegiwa one which is a copy of the rm01a. That's what I'm running on mine.
