They don't even fit in the rear license plate spot... they're too wide. If it wasn't illegal I'd run around with no front plate (but I was done for it before lol).

Yeah, 97+ front bumper looks very nice. I've thought about it many times. I may do it eventually. I've become very hands-on now after I got the SC because the parts are expensive and money is tight so I try to follow some instructions from various DIY and info on the net. It feels good to save money and learn things at the same time. I try to research everything now and do what I have to do to save a little money and make a cheaper alternative work.

Offsets you ask?
18x9.5 +20 all round.
Rolled front and rear
235 fronts, 265 rears.
Very nice

I've been waiting to see pictures of these. I have the same BBS RGR wheels, just in 18x9 +35 with 245/45 all around. I rub ever so slightly in the rear, but haven't rolled anything yet. Good to know that once I do, I can put some 265's back there. I'll try to get pics of mine if it ever stops raining/snowing here long enough.
