First shop quoted 12k with paint whole car. Second shop quoted 8k with paint. Third shop agreed 3700 cash under the table with paint match the specific pieces. That shop was also across the state so we drove there and dropped off the car for 6 weeks. However this came back to bite us in the butt. Def get a few quotes 2k sounds really cheap unless he's giving u a cash deal also

And no not running any spacers
Front 18x9.5 back 18x11 everything sits flush no camber.(don't like it)

Just because he said it is not flush means he doesn't like it ....cut the piece out as i seen a lot of people do this with RB kits for clearance.

Not trying to be rude, but hitting the body of the car in any way is not perfect fitment.

I would take it to a trustworthy shop and have that inner fender rolled more or modified so it doesn't rub at full lock. You've already permanently altered the exterior of your car, so what difference is a few more tweaks and fixes to make it truly perfect?

Regardless, the car looks fantastic OP

I know haha. I picked these wheels because I like the more aggressive look with the poking. I only trimmed the lip on the part it was rubbing at so like an inch and a half off so it wasn't too bad at all.

Know it is beating my head against a wall but the wheels fit is just fine. There is no need to add the suffix 'ment' to create a noun.


The fit of the wheels is just fine.
The wheels fit just fine.

It's the front of a frame rail. Everyone I have talked to who has the 19's (correct offset, without spacers) has had the same problem. Fixed it by cutting the lip or heating and hammering the lips of that rail in...that's what Staycrushing did, what I did, and most other who run big tires and 18's or just 19's
