    I asked and it wasnt necessary with my suspension setup, so I didnt calculate that into the cost. I also assumed (wrongly) that the car would sit the same as with my WEDs, if not better. Its a learning processs. ;)

    I know you can afford to have them rolled Mariano. I don't see how you figured you wouldn't be rolling them with 9.5" rims :)

    Are you running spaces? Can you reduce the offset at all? Otherwise it's time to flare the arches and tuck those bad boys up.

    I think the other guys preferred the 'stance' of your old setup, rather than the WED rims themselves.
    Just my opinion. Loving your car regardless.

    No spacers. Im getting Gruppe N coilovers installed before Bfest so the front will come down, but the rear will have to be rolled to go lower because when hitting some decent rolling bumps, it rubs. In person they look very good, as I think people that have seen them will vouch for. But no worries, the front will be dropped. And yes, the stance with the WEDs was basically perfect looking for me, so I dunerstand the observation that these arent looking optimal. One must understansd that with the same suspension, going from 16x7 all around to 17x8.5/9.5 and not rubbing and still looking decent is an occasion. haha. I always welcome opinions, dont hold back. Although Im surprised at the reaction, that doesnt mean Im pissed that some people arent completely satisfied with them. Im very happy with them, so while I like hearing opinions, the fact that I am in love with them is the overriding factor. Thank you fort your honesty though. I value honesty

    Yeah, I definately think the front and rear need another 1" drop. Just a tad bit of tire tuck all around.
    If you pay for my fender rolling in the rear, Im game jk hahaha. ;)

    Hey Mariano.

    Perfect set if rims. However, for the longest time they just didn't seem to do it for me - and typically I'm a die hard RS fan. I have refrained from passing comment becasue I didn't know why I didn't like them.

    You could take a picture of your car in a dumpster and it would still come out good as a sig.
