Jm, yeah fallbrook is right next to me. are you going to the 02/20 meet at hooters somewhere?

Yeah thats what I used on my cobra when i was running skinnies... worked really well for years, and that spacer was a 1 1/4 INCHES for the front. I guess if you dont go Cheap then you should be fine.. BTW i had the HR spacers.. :ughdance:

Just a little update...finally got the rear spacers on (Ichiba 15mm) and now the rears fit nice and flush:tup:

...essentially 20x11 +2 with the spacers:p

I even thought about running a 20mm but with plans of running 295 or 305 in rear and only -2deg camber I thought that might be pushing it.

Welcome to the flush and proper offset crew :tup: most people go for the weak sauce fitments but there are a few of us braves souls that look to push the limits of this car! Great job and with 305's you will need a lil more camber in the rear ;)

^ thanks bullitt...and hells yeah I agree, most people go way too conservative on wheel fitments with this car. Once I get new tires Ill take your advice on the camber and toe adjustments.

Nice wheels. The 20 inchers really fill nice and you've done the offset really well. The only thing I don't like is the tire sizes. They really look stretched. The sidewalls look to be ... oh I think 1/4" or more leaning inward when they reach the treads. You're leading with the wheel lip, not the tire protective lip. Looks like the tires are too small, IMHO.

Nice wheels. Don't like the tire stretch at all.

The stretched tires have a Euro look to me!
