        I got tires mounted today, 205 50's in the back and 195 50s up front and it looks awesome. But now i need spacers for the fronts so they clear the brake caliper =[

              No, you just need to take a grinder to the caliper bracket.

                What does welding the perch on buy you? Do you have to on the ix?

                    Thanks, I never really payed a whole lot of attention to how it was done but, what did you paint your wheels with? It looks great.

                        No he's serious. Take a grinder to the caliper, just don't be stupid.

                        Grind some off, then take a sharpie and color your caliper.
                        Mount wheel and spin it.
                        Sharpie color will come off where it still hits.

                        And for the "$600 coilovers". It's just the GC kit.
                        Involves cutting and welding one thing.
