The most I'll do is try to find thinner spacers to get it more flush with the fender,but I think I'll only do that if I decide on lowering springs.

Most people buy wheels with the proper lug patter, offset and widths. Those who do not, end up with tons of poke, or use camber to fit them.

To say you're the only 86 owner who has a set of poorly fitting, cheap wheels is laughable. There's tons out there.

It's a daily,but I get what you're saying.

I'll say this then.I'm probably one of the few that have a set up like this in my area,which isn't a poor fit,just a tad bit on the wider side(which I don't think you can notice a whole lot from the pictures).


I got the wheels brand new for $450. The cheapest I've seen in the size I was looking for is $123 each,but of course those are all sold out. right now ,the cheapest are about $160 each. With the spacers,I'm saving about $50(not even factoring in the cost of shipping,which would be saving me even more money),which doesn't seem like much consider,but like I said before,they really aren't poking out that far.Just a little past the fenders,more so the front than back but I'm liking the look.

Made a gopro mount before taking the car to the track.

Friend visited with his salvage rebuild. Not a bad way to do it, IMO.

I saw a Tesla S chassis displayed recently and the sheer simplicity really hit home. An electric motor replacing all those parts for fuel, cooling, lubrication, pistons, valves, cams , ignition , filters , exhaust , plumbing etc to eek out efficiency, not to mention multiple transmission parts and the damn thing does 0-100 in 4 seconds.

We will be dead by the time gas/diesel completely get replaced!
I definitely love wrenching and replacing my own parts while I'm alive!

When auto manufacturers stop building ugly/slow/hatchbacks... Tesla makes excellent looking cars but a model 3 your waiting forever anyways.

Doubtful. I guess it depends how old you are! lol.

At the rate at which we're using petrol, I wouldn't be surprised if that came much faster than we think.

30. I just don't see myself outlasting all of the worlds stock piles of oil. But then again we use ALOT! I still figure I'll be pulling wrenches for another 30 years (not saying I was pulling wrench as a baby lol)

I just saw that you're from Calgary. Makes sense that you would say that!

I'm not ready for simplicity. I'm too young for that. Lemme smash some more car parts on this thing first.

lol totally does! Also the fact I work in a shop at a tar sand mine working towards an apprenticeship for heavy duty mechanic.
