I wished they had a fatter lip in the rear. I still love those wheels though.

Got them from Discount Tire. They worked with me real well. Price matched tirerack with the tires and all.

Don't you think I forgot either, one of these days I am moving down there and you had better buy me a beer or 2... And you better not be selling your Z.

Might sell the Z without REF1's I need a change. I love the Advans but something gets me with those wheels. I wish the guy selling the SBC's would trade track rims with cash

Ofcourse beers all around Corona Light though

Fenders are rolled and pulled. One side the paint cracked, the other side got a little wavy cause of the welds. Not too happy, but nothing some good old body work can't fix. No rubbing now though

Did you use the tool or did somebody else do it? I'm renting the tool for this weekend hopefully it doesn't turn out too bad.

Had a friend do it with the tool. Rolling them is easy but when you start streatching them things go bad real fast. Gonna end up costing me a crap load for the body work, but oh well.

Chris - Do it, do it now.

So the bottom line for search purposes is that the 18x10.5 +15 rear wheel with a properly-sized 285 tire (i.e. no super stretch with a 255 or 265 like I've seen before) will rub in the back. I assume you were at stock camber, and although I'm not at stock camber, I am also WAY lowered. Dang.

Does it currently rub? I am considering buying spacers for my +20 offset wheels to make it more flush and aggressive. Let me know, thanks!

What size tires are you running?

He said it DOES rub. Read the first page - you should probably not buy spacers, but depends on what tire size you choose. A 265 HIPARI or a properly-sized 285.
