thx I agree for sure ! A friend of mine who is local here in Lafayette, Louisiana will be doing the painting/install.. I will help prep it because he's pretty busy and is doing it as a favor... I am bringing him the lip a little later today actually before I go into work

well, I bought them from a friend I wanna say about 2 years ago.. maybe even a little longer than that! anyways I recently asked him the same and he couldn't remember but what I can tell you is they are 20x8.5 Im guessing +25ish offset and the rear is DEFINITELY 20x10 +25 so the front is the only thing Im unsure about... maybe someone can chime in a good guess now knowing the width of the wheel?!

lol well because there is a parking deficiency over here at our comlpex-- this is their comprimise I guess.. they make the marked handicapped spots acutally just be regular parking for residents.. there are a few signs on the grounds saying something like.. as of 2/19/'12 Handicapped parking will no longer be designated for handicapped tag only vehicles, any bridgeway resident can park in handicapped designated spots and will not be ticketed.. The law has still tried to come in and issue tickets but the front office/management handled it..

btw can anyone tell me what is the ultimate wheel size setup width offset everything (would be stretching the tires) in 19" for someone who only has shaved and sealed fenders front and rear no pull or fenderwork yet I'd rather leave it like this but want that slight poked look.. very slight like pretty much perfectly flush I guess you could say... problem I am having is my wheels are 20x8.5 in the front and there is no size of tire made that I can stretch on there good enough to make this work with more aggressive of an offset with spacers.. like how I have it is the best I can make and still have it driveable.. I put the 10mm spacer on earlier and it looks so perfect ! and 15 in the rear looked awesome too.. I am stretched tires in the rear so it would work but I dont want my rear all perfectly aggresive and my fronts still tame so I took that spacer back off too.. or do you guys think it looks that bad how it is in the pics? idk Im just picky

thanks! no botteming out yet but lemme get back to you on that issue after driving on them for about a month to give a better analysis ya know.. I will say for now that I am in disbelief of how amazing this car rides with these megan coilovers though, I am very impressed... I love this damn car so much lol !!
