Bump from the dead, after a year on 19’s I swapped back to my 18” wheels on Eibach Pro-Kit Springs and it feels great.

Saved, 4lbs a corner on the front and 8 lbs a corner on the rear.

Bumping for more 18” lovers and their current setups.

^ you running the PS4S in 285/35 for rear?

I have a set of PS4S in 235/40 and 265/40, miss the grip of the 305s since they were so sticky compared to the 265s.

Good call on the Augment Wheels! Will check that out.

Wish Apex would run their new forged series in 8”5” front.
