I added at 10mm spacer after I redrilled mine... I still think 19mm spacer/adapter is still a bit much

Sc300jz, did you have to get aftermarket upper control arms to get that stance?
Also, what tire size are you running?

I might be able to pick a set of these up locally for the time before I can get wheels I really want. Time for some fender mods I guess.

Anybody got more pics?

UCA (under/lower control arm)? And what exactly is it banging on?

I plan to redrill and run these in original specs. Backs shaved and fronts rolled, anybody know how they'll fit? Will they tuck in pretty good? Most like I'll be going with 215/35 front and 235/35 rear on tires.

I dont mind the tuck look, but if that doesnt work out then I'll just try to get it more flush, dont wanna get adapters or pull my fenders yet.
