    Definite potential, like it was said, I have never really seen one that looks good. All the people around me that own then are young kids. The typical SRT-4 driver, exhibitionst in public with thirty rev's of the engine just to get out of a parking spot. But I do like yours, potential....potential

    my cut springs have a soft spot for bumps lol!
    k-sports will drop me to the height I need, but megan racing (BC coilovers) makes different length springs for different drops and I would rather go that route. Plus the megans are 32 way and only 900 dollars!

    yes, the whole car is a saab with a j-body style slapped on the drivetrain/subframe. it even says so on the cylinder head. the 900 owners with this bolt pattern as far as I know have resorted to adapters which are usually at least a 15mm negative offset. I would like a deep dish or even something like work emotions to really poke and finish the look. anyone know about custom drilling? I would imagine a hub adapter (to make up for hub diameter) or even honing the inner hub of the wheel is not impossible either.

    the front is maxed! rubbing bad! if i lower the rear it'll just look stupid. I am on 18's...anyone got some euro informationz?

    no one really has, and that's why I'm going for it! I am very limited to low offset wheels with the 5x110 hub. What's the silliest offset you think I can get? I found wheels with a +5mm that are pretty affordable they're quite the dishes and 8 wide so I'd have some room to stretch. my stock offset is 42mm, am I looking at mandatory fender pulling for a 5mm wheel?
    Yes, that is a very big difference. Picture where your wheel where it's at now at +42, then picture it moved 37mm towards the outside of the car. Hope that can give you an idea. (25.4mm = 2.54cm = 1 inch, keep in mind)

    That is a Saab (maybe Volvo too?) bolt pattern if I'm not mistaken. Maybe try looking for wheels that will fit Saabs, might open up some more options.
