I used the McGaurd Slpinedrive tunner lugs. These are the ones with the patented spinning base. Works well for all the different aftermarket rims I've used thus far.

hahaha yeah I was talkin to him awhile back asking him about his chopped springs. I'm still not sure if i want to go that route, but we'll see. That'll be my last resort if I know it'll take forever to save up haha. Poor college student here

With those offsets, you're going to have to cut those springs in half or you're going to be poking out an inch or two of the fender. Can't wait to see them on your car though.
