yea it was hard for me to get rid of the Blitz rims......i loved them, but they could not accomodate my brakes without spacers.......i really don't like driving with spacers so i had to sell them...........the plus side is i have HRE's now

thanks for the comments guys....

yeah the hre 540r, one of the best wheels, hahahah (lame hard sell )

anyway, i thought with the flares, you should be able to get more lip on the wheels! seems like you still only have like 1" in the front and 2" in the back?

rmm trunk spoiler.......

at the time i ordered my wheels, i wasn't planning to get the flares................but i did and now i regret i didn't buy bigger wheels...........however without the flares the wheels align perfectly to the fenders.........i could run spacers, but then i would be back to square one with my blitz rims.........

ah gotcha. but that means now with the flare the wheels look kinda inset?

how about just get different outter lip? it shouldn't be as expensive?
