General Exclaims FTW! You can't beat the performance for that price.

offsetz33.....

Did you need to use the 3mm spacer to clear the caliper?

It was really close - I actually filed down the very bottom of my caliper and it cleared barely, but it was too close for comfort so I added the spacer for the extra clearance. These fit fine on a larger BBK though - they work perfectly on a Stoptech for example. The reason is that the caliper sits closer to the hub with the oem brembos and these wheels concave in so much that there just barely isnt enough room.

Little update - I installed Cusco A-arms to get a little more neg. camber up front and I now have NO rubbing issues. In fact I could easily go more aggressive and/or lower now. I probably wont, but I could The top of the tire now sits well into the fender with not as much poke. I do need to bring up my passenger side front coilover because it is still sitting a tiny bit lower than the drivers side, but I suppose when driving my weight may even it out... Ill probably adjust it when I touch up my caliper paint later this week. It was too hot to mess around with it today. Also put on the custom front 3mm spacers that are hubcentric and pulled off the temporary generic spacers. Now I just need an alignment to bring in my toe but I dont mind the neg. camber

^^^ yeah I need to do some little things, hopefully give it a good detail and get some good shots. Wish I had a good camera and knew a little something about photoshop so I could get the amazing pics some of the other members have... but oh well.
