yeh i agree. but it looked a lil silly in person. ill prolly pick up somehting less than a 25 to bring it out alil bit but not make it flush.

well it's been a VERY mild winter so far, high 40s mid 50s. last night we had small flurries so wtf i decided to throw the wheels on.. it's almost end of Dec anyways. since last posted i cleaned them up and sprayed them white with rustoleum auto spray $20 at the home depot.. cheaper than the autozone across the street for the same spray. so heres pics of the final.


20mm spacers for the rear from Z1. awsome quality. zero issues with them very impressed. the rear is sitting almost flush much like the stock wheels.

Looks pretty good dude. I just put my V2 touring wheels on. No issues with clearing the sport brakes. Pretty good option for a cheap winter setup, lots of dinged up touring wheels on craigslist etc. As you can see the rear could use a spacer but I'm not too worried about it. My wheels are all scratched up anyway. May decide to paint or powdercoat them after this winter, haven't decided..

FYI anyone thinking about doing this you'll need to get some different lugnuts. These are the ones I got:
