**PLEASE READ THE RULES BEFORE POSTING. KTHXBYE** Rules. 1. Only post your own/families vehicles. Do not post other peoples vehicles that you know. If you have a family member that isn’t on the forum u can post their vehicle 2. Please post specs. Its not worth a damn if there are no specs. Include front and rear diameter and width of rim, offset, disc type if there are options. Include front and rear tire sizes along with brand. 3. Do not post shitty fitment wheels, This thread is for flush/poke wheels with stretch or crazy wide tire fitments. Making the most use of your fender wells. 4. Keep it to local cars (this shouldn’t have to be stated going by rule 1). 5.

That far away from stock it takes a lot of work to get it all to fit in there. I’m still going to need a 3/8ths spacer or so to give me all that much more room away from the frame. They simply didn’t make the wheel with any lower of an offset. ---
