Bumper/tire question

onefastz · 04-23-2011, 05:18 PM

I have an aftermarket rear bumper, and I hate the way it is a lot wider than my tire/wheel. What is my best option to make my tires extend wider of push out farther to be flush with the rear bumper? Any other options besides spacers? Are there any other tire sizes I could put on the base wheels that would be wide enough to make it flush? Appreciate the help! I've added a picture to show what I mean, thanks guys.

Ichiba V2 20mm spacers for the rear and front.

yah, definitely run spacers on stock wheels.

So 20mm spacers will push it out far enough to be flush?

How do you even determine what mm you need?

i read that people were using 15 to 25 and looked at picts. 20's a good number.

also based on the offset of the wheels we can tell by looking at other examples how many mm's we can add before it starts to look like a 4x4.

Great thanks! I'll go with 20mm. I'm looking for someone selling a pair that can ship to me very quickly cause I need them by wednesday! Anyone have a pair for sale?
