Kind of an off question, but how much did it cost for you to shave off the emblem and repaint the bumper? I'm already in need to a repaint (something flew onto my bumper while on the freeway and scraped it ..)

im sad.. i cant find a site that sells a full set of black 57extremes in 18x9.5 +40 in australia
they only supply it in a set of pairs which come in 18x9.5 +40 and 18x8.5 +38. wanted to order from hpt but they dont do international shipping which is a shame

you SHOULD be okay as teh rear has more room than the front. some pepole have been running stuff like this on stock suspension so i dont see why you wont make it work?

Hey Jive,

I've since fitted my 57Xtremes with my Eibach Pro Kit and was hoping you could advise me on how to fix the poke? I'm planning on lowering it an extra half-inch (1.5" in total), hoping the natural camber will sort it out. Otherwise, I'd consider some front camber bolts/rear control arms.

fix the poke by adding camber...and since you're on springs you also have to worry about inner strut clearance. if you JUST installed the springs you got to give them time to settle a bit. it should camber in but you might still need more.

what is the wheel/tire setup dimensions wise?
