Being flush Is hard !

Being flush Is hard !
I test fitted my brothers wheels today ...
18x10 -5 on his rear to my rear ..... and in order to have those work I will need to grind down the fender and take out the prerolled lip out ... + pull ALOT ! 15-20 at least .... + I just got my new paint job ?? Sheet
Over all It is hanging out of the car about 2.5 inches ...
usually with the rims I have 265/30/19 19x10 with +43 offset when My psi is at 25 i am cambered and dumbed on the ground ...
With the car at 87 psi its the lowest I can go with a 235 tire on the wheel
( 18 ) No where near flush or cambered ... just test fitting
Might need a 225 for the rear to get Nice and snug on a 10 inch wheel.. for the rear but talk about a bad ride ;(
BLAH Pictures to come my friend took the camera home .. hope he uploads
I was really looking forward to having spacers on the car but its 31 mm to have it flush just for the rear ... No way for these wheels ...
I did the math and spoke with some of the vendors from another thread and it looked like the 19x9 with -2 front would fit perfectly ..for the front with Jp fenders.. maybe with the 5mm spacer might throw things off though ...
I might just leave these for now until I see a pair of wheels like antbos old wheels with same offset
+ having to add bumps stops to Not dump all the way ...
Post pics of your flushness !! I need to see if its worthed for me lol
Currently sunken as a ship, The upside is I can turn the wheel fully and Not touch tire at all on fender..

I used spacers with the old wheels to set them where I wanted.
Stretched, pulled and cut fenders to fit.
Painted car.
Calulated the effective offsets, adjusted for wider width and made the new wheels to this spec.

versus being slammed... Once you understand the dynamics of suspension
travel, you can better understand why this occurs.
P, looks like the bumper was on but not painted yet in those pics...

Yeah, those were pics when I was test fitting the kit and fitting the wheels. I knew I had to do all of these steps first before painting. And I'm glad I did, since I had to pull the rear quarter panel about 7mm to fit the wheels w/ the spacers.
