So got my tires dismounted today, found out that they are 2 piece welded. So going to take them apart tomorrow and have the faces powder coated, then re polish the lips and try to bring the bolts back to life lol.

UPDATE*** By the way the re-drill has inserts so its not as sketch as you may think lol.

Got my 5mm spacers up front, maxed the camber out, here is the result with all four wheels on. [IMG][/IMG]

Test fitted the rears

The fronts need a 5mm spacer to clear the brakes so going to get those soon. Maxed my camber out up front. Hard to tell with the stock wheels but it definitely gained a few degrees.

are those a fill n' drill job or were they just redrilled? Looks sketch..be careful.

They were re drilled and not filled, going to fill them before powered coat.

Came across a great deal on some rare ARE 398 wheels so i had to get them! 16x8.5 et 10 & 13. 3 inch lips all around. My plans are to tear them apart and re polish the lips, white centers, and black or gold bolts. As for tires, they have 205/50s which are HUGE. So going to pick up some fallen 912's 205/40s.. Let me know what you guys think

Here is what i want them to look like. I know its going to be hard, but need to source some center caps because they guy didn't have them If i can't find any, or make any other ones fit, I'm going to just do a stud conversion and run extended lug nuts.

Today finally got around to lowering the car. Took the rear collar and perch out so the rears are fully maxxed on what it looks like 5 1/2 in. springs. The fronts are almost maxed out with just the collars in and about a half inch left to maxing. It looks way better than before, slightly tucking tire. When the wheels go on it will most likely be maxed out. Let me know what you guys think! The muffler will be installed tuesday so ill update then.
