          Thanks guys I'm very happy with them as well. What this car really needed was a nice set of wheels.

          The day after I lost Domo I retraced my steps from after I took that pic and found him on the side of the highway 20min from my house! Domo is saved!

            Yeah it did. Thing looks amazing with 'em. Glad I traded you and you're stoked, man. I was hoping you wouldn't regret it with the stretch... ;)

              Any chance you could do a front-on shot when you have the suspension dialed in? I have been going back and forth on these wheels but want to see how much poke the front has. I'm not a fan of the staggered setup. By the way, this is a great thread. Thanks for sharing.

                Ya for sure. I can tell you right now though that without any spacers the edge of the rim still pokes past the fender in the front.

                  Appreciated! Do you still need to space them out? (sorry to divert attention from your build threat!)

                    No problem man. The front is probably fine the way it is but the rear will need around 8-12mm for it to be as flush as the front. That will happen once the car is on coils.

                            The front pokes out a TON, way past the wheel arch. Looks goofy IMO, but the wheels are sick.

                              i think its better to run the et20 16X9's from the rear up front with a 3mm spacer to clear the strut, wont have as much poke. The rear can use the poke, Im running a 15mm spacer on mine for a final offset of 5

                              the car looks sick man! came a long ways.

                                They come in different offsets? I thought all the 16X9 were et10?

                                I think once the car is on coils it wont look as ridiculous as it does right now. I wont put any more spacers in the front but if I can get the rears to be even with the fronts I will be satisfied.
