    Agreed. the more I look at the picture above your reply, the more I love them. They are going to be re-barreled (possibly stepped to 18inch? but I do like the 17's, tyres are cheap and I can go lower)

    But i will be test fitting rears to fronts today to see how it looks poke wise when aired up and if i get clearance when down... shall see how it goes!

          Ah im trying to avoid spacers to avoid adding yet ANOTHER possible defect to the list - but I know exactly what you mean.

          However, its like that for a reason - I'm broke and the guards aernt rolled (yes, i have somehow got my car to the point of rails WITHOUT rolling guards - i don't even know.) so once they are rolled I have another inch or so of play and then I will actually increase the lips on the rim, rather than spacers as they are three piece wheels

          Edit: Man, also, I read your build thread on your merc ages ago, and being in a wheelchair man you are a HUGE inspiration. Can't stand thinking to myself now 'I can't do this, I can't do that' when I saw what you had achieved, its a huge credit to you man, well done!

            Yes this ! In to see wider lips on the wheels for sure. Wider is better. Still crazy to think that you havent even rolled them from how they came from the factory. Does it rub pretty hard or what ?

              Negative, no rubbing. Being a uni/college kid with 0 money, I have every measurement to the mm, and I literally clear upon airing out by a mm, possibly less...

              You know how you see kids putting credit cards in between their wheels and fenders? I cant even do that halfway aired out, its such a small gap but 0 scrubbing. so thats a bonus for now.

              i was quoted $150 per lip for new ones. However, I might just widen the fronts by 2 inch lip, and then stick the rears on the front, swap fronts (when widened) to rear to save the cash and roll guards instead.

                          You seem to appreciate Zooey Deschanel as much as I do haha. Along with her, I also appreciate that car of yours, very nice.

                            Here you are good sir; I picked up this just earlier today!



                            The rear bar is on hold for me sort of until the end of this week where I hope I can aquire more funds. If not, im totally down for just front lip.

                            And oh for all the induction noise I got;



                            But mainly picked this up to resell - I might not even put it on my car as it was SUPER cheap.
