Default Tested WedsSport SA60m today and....

Had sometime today to mount OEM tires on this wheels and the rear ones were pocking out an inch. Is there any flares available out there? I know is a little crazy but doesn't hurt to try hehe.. Thoughts? Lol

Thanks
David

While I'm no expert, is pulling the fender an option? Equally permanent but without having to put holes in the fender.

It is something that can be done by a professional and it's done with a fender roller. I'm not looking to do a crazy pull, just something decent that doesn't look like crap lol.

Did photoshopped the wheels. Not sure if I did the look, thoughts? Lol

Nice wheels! but that offset seems a bit much way too low for this car. I'm curious how it will look once you're done.

Yeah, that I know well for sure. Here is a picture on how much they stick out. I'm asking around town who can do a decent pull, some say 10mm can be possible without making it look ugly and I'm having another guy take a look soon.

Bud that offset is crazy.
Are you bagging the car? If so... perfect.
If not... you're going to damage some paint pulling those fenders that far.
Just being honest, not rude.

Installed Flat black WedsSport SA60m 18x9 +35 (front), 18x10 +20 (rear) and 265 all around. Getting rear fender pull tomorrow and if that doesn't help I'm going to order rear camber adjusters..


And yes it does rub on rear.

So it looks like one of my shocks or spring failed. Car is sitting lower on rear driver side, I guess is time for coils?

Need to post pics from the front looking down the side of the car. It looks like those tires stick out a lot.
