It will look like ****

With spacers? I understand def not optimal lol. Found some so cheap so trying to rationalize it myself 😄. Might be better for garage ornament

just compare using this vs the wheels you have or some stock wheels + spacer combos you see all over the internet. No idea if it will work but easy to check how it might look/fit with that.

You probalby going to need quite a lot of spacer (unsafe? lots more leverage on the hub bearing) for it to look flush, if you're ok with the shitty oem sunken look then less spacer.

Agreed thanks for the input

Read. The. Thread.

I guarantee educating yourself with free info is cheaper than buying dumbass wheels and asking about it

LOL don't be a ****. The point of the thread is to get opinions/options.
Literally the title is "Will it fit?"

I know it'll fit with spacers. Just getting other's thoughts. Don't chime in if you don't want to and unsubscribe from the threas. Jfc, somebody needs a Midol rofl.

Read. The. Title.

This thread is pretty annoying, so much animosity. So many people getting mad for no reason.

The thread title is "will it fit"

the responses should be "yes" or "no" IMO.

no reason to chastise and alienate new members using the thread exactly the way it's been titled.

The problem is that what happens if it's just "yes" or "no"? You're still back at the point where due diligence, using the forum, comes into play. You're still gonna have folks question why and the same threads are still gonna be referenced. Eventually we are back at where we are now. Let's just accept that the expectation of knowing how to use the resources available to you are par for the course and that spoon feeding info isn't something anyone is willing to do.

RTFM isn't a good response to every post in this thread. I'm happy to help people. IMO if all you're going to post amounts to RTFM don't bother responding then, if the thread annoys you so much ignore it. /shrug

IMO that is a perfectly reasonable response to someone who clearly hasn't done any research and is looking to be spoonfed answers that are easily found. There are plenty of people who do their research, have some trouble finding specific details, and then ask for help. But then there are people who complain about reading the thread and proceed to ask the exact same question in a post on the same page

Anyone who gets personally offended on the internet needs to be trolled anyway

Some people are just lazy. They want to be spoon feed like a little baby and then if you don't give it to them they get mad as hell about it and pitch one hell of a fit. They will post BS about you on Instagram and where ever they think someone will listen for moral support.

OptionZero · 02-09-2022, 01:43 PM

teach a man to fish, and all that jazz

just telling him yes or no doesn't help him much since theres infinite possibilities for wheels/tires/spacers/suspension adjustments

You are absolutely dense to think it's bad to tell someone HOW it works so they can figure it out their immediate question and future ones

Half of this entire thread is keyboard fighting.

It's unfortunate because this thread is REALLY useful and helped me.
