This is the best and the worst.
If the chrome was in good shape, yeah I'd definitely run it as is. But I would **** having that on my car knowing it's like that. So, I'm hoping that this chromer I'm talking to will be able to strip them for me. And while he's stripping the lips, he might as well strip the faces too.

I've been trying to get in contact with a couple chromers and they either say they're too busy, do it myself, or just don't answer. Let me know what you find out, I really want to get these refinished, but don't want to pay out the ass for it.
That's awesome that it's going to someone on here, so the build will live on and you'll still get to see it. I wish I knew where my mustang went after I sold it.

The rear looks like it should be good, maybe a 5mm spacer or more. I don't want to run too much camber and can't go very low because of the huge speedbumps at my work. And the 17s would drop it down pretty low to where I'd probably get stuck lol

I was gonna say you could have them machined out. Mightymax guys do it all the time. I think it's normally like 75 a wheel or something like that. I've seen people do it themselves with a router before but I myself wouldn't do it that way.
I wish I could trade my heart for an extra liver, just so I can drink more and care less.

May be able to ger a spacer just wide enough to space it out over the hub and do a stud conversion and run it that way, not hubcentric any more. I really want to get these to work lol
