+38 offset on stock tires will they rub?
Wow... looks like your poking out a bit up front.... 
... if you were a bit lower it might cause some problems.... looks good no the less..
...
when you can get that other pick when the wheels come back

i will and yes my bump stops are cut i had them installed at a reputable shop who has done many many installs. also my drop looks the same as everyone elses the gap looks diffent in the pic because of the low pro tire and angle. also my back sits slightly lower because of the system. if someone with df210 wants to post a side view pics with stock wheels/tires feel free i will post one up of mine.
the rims are 1 inch smaller, but tires are not.
stock 185/55 has 101.75mm sidewall
these 205/50 has 102.50mm sidewall
So these tires are .75mm thicker than stock. I was told that my speedo will be off just a tad, like while i am going at 60mph, my speedo will read 62mph....or something like that, maybe vice-versa.
Every 1000 actual miles i go, the meter will read 1038 miles....so yeah, i will be off just a lil bit.
As for revs, i may have noticed my rpm's are a lil bit higher than before. I'll double check today while i am on the highway at 60mph. i think i have seen my rpm's were around 2200-2300 after putting this setup at 60mph, bit i'll check again.

I've got a set of Yokohama A032R in 205-50-15 sitting in my garage right now and I'm really tempted to get a set of 15 inch rims and see what the car can do in corners (once I get my suspension installed). One thing is for sure; there won't be any rubbing with a tire almost 1 inch shorter than stock!
