yeah its +38 in rear and 45 front. i think

im guessing if work doesnt make the wheels in that size then i will have to get it custom, im thinking about the prodrives now as well, but prodrive use closed down so i would have to order them from prodrive japan, the wheels that are on the car are cobb tunings wheels i was just test fitting them to see clearance and what not. so ill have to see.

ps howd you get your custom avatar and sig, or do you have to have a paid membership

they don't make a 9.5 in an offset higher than +38mm.

do the 9.5 +38mm clear in the rear? seems like you'd need some camber to get those to fit properly.

Sig is setup in the "User CP"
