Yeah there have been some "serious fluctuations" in the rubber market with a corresponding rise in tire prices, but they'll blame price increases on anything won't they?

Survey says they have a 55mm offset, now why won't my brain figure out the rest of your question?

Does "not exactly" qualify as an answer?

Give this thread a read Sam, but it looks like you'd have to shim them out a bit to clear the lower spring perches.

That was a pretty good answer I like them and I think the gmax 255's will go in there too. I've never used a spacer but if HHRsouth didnt have trouble he was making a lot more torque than me . What say you all ? capp an djr make them look good

They are sharp aren't they?

I have them on my "eventually" list, but you can't do everything at once.
