Wasn't it a girl? I thought the rims were really nice.


To the OP. With that low of an offset and a 10.5" rim, wouldn't you run the risk of the rim hitting the fender?

Noooope, rolled really close to the wall, and slightly bent out the fenders to drop the car, and to hopefully bring out the wheel more!

hey calvin,

i got some 19x9 and 19x11's im throwing on this week, offsets are lower then +11 too. ill let you know how they fit

oh i dont know if this will help, but more then likely fenders will have to pulled/widend a little bit. thats the route im gonna go.

those 350z's have shaved/pulled fenders as well.
