does the left side of the car (both front and rear) give you the same measurements as the rt side after everything was done?

 

look and learn

 

Nice man .. Im really surprised that a 5.5 MM Spacer would make that much off a difference Great pic and comparisons BTW.. ..
This may just be a future mod for me after all...

 

5.5 MM makes a HUGE difference, almost like, 5.5mm worth.

 

to be specific about this guys, the 5.5mm spacers will actually create exactly 7mm difference once everything is measure after install. trust me after i installed it my reaction was whoa! 5.5mm is small but can make a huge difference...

 

You sure about that?

 

god that is ****ing stupid

 

i looked and it really did not answer my question.
let me rephrase, can you take some after pictures of the left side with the stick and tape measure?


i ask because i noticed that on some cars, the wheels does not always stick out the same amount as compared to the other side. i want to know if thats true on our cars as well before i order wheels.

i love how yours came out though.

 

damn dude you missed out.
Kicks just came out with their 7 and 11/32" spacers. Thats what your car needed!

 

yup 11.5 ordered it myself whats the matter? too used to seeing 19x11? "the usual" ..... i dont like to repeat myself only if the person is slow and need help

 

just focus on the red line and green line that's the comparrison (no spacers /with spacers) thanks for the comment.
