Correct they are the larger center caps I just blacked them out. And yes wen our lowered you just have to be careful over very steep inclines. I have no issues over speed bumps. That might change when I get my lip tho well see.

I know you said you used a 5mm spacer, but do you think our lugs are long enough for a 10mm spacer? I'm guessing not. Also, did you use a hubcentric ring?
For my Rotas... Yes for wheeltek, I have 5mm too (rolled fenders in back), no spacers in front. Yes for hubcentric ring. Not sure about lugs for a 10mm spacer though.

Thank you. Do you think I can get away with 8mm spacer on stock lugs was going to put 8mms in the rear and the 5s up front

What did you do just get the smoke covers or did you use smoke translucent paint? You took it off because it didnt look right?

If you get some ra tails you can send them to me I can smoke them. I used a candy black spray paint I order online it's like 30 dollars a can. I took it off because they were too black since the insides are already black. I had no issues with cops I just dig the stock ra light look on WW.

Did you have to roll your fenders? I'm on Eibach Pro springs which have similar drop to the RRM's and looking to go with an 18x8 wheel w/ 225 tires. Any problems with rubbing due to suspension travel?

Thanks!

it depends on the offset of the wheels your looking at getting most likely you will only rub
with extra cargo or 2 passengers.

What he said. I never had had issues. I want to get bigger spacers for the rears now. Will the skids over 8 mm spacers be too big for stock studs??

Probably, it was too much for both my stockers and my winter set. Extended studs aren't that expensive, though, and it's a diy mod so minimal cost there
