Im a bit nervous about adding that offset on my car now. i keep reading it will reduce the way my car handles, and mess up a few things on my car, and that it takes alot of work to do it. ****t

yes they will fit, rear fenders are going to have to be rolled and you will need 5mm spacers up front to clear the brembos, performance won't be affected, a little searching goes a long way

LMFAO this is completely different!

He wont be walking around looking like a dumbass, and it doesn't hurt performance, if anything he rolls the fenders and can run a wider tire.

Wow! Why would you rush into ordering something so quick without knowing all you need to know first? Hope you got all your questions answered within that hour.

the reason I rushed it was because i have no choice bro, my side wall on my front tire is slightly torn and I have 2 screws in my back tire. <_<

Thats what i figured i would need also, but Dan from wheeldude told me i wouldnt need spacers for that size. Unless i misunderstood him, im doing all this ordering from work and its hard to keep fokissed.

Well good luck man. Post some pics when you have it all installed. Let me know if you do need spacers or modifications for the install.
