new wheels just came in, might get a 5-10mm spacer for the rear to push them out a little bit more

Yup pretty much, but available in 20s and they are pretty concave in the rears so it's kinda the best of both worlds

The fronts are more concave than they look in the pictures, I'm pretty satisfied with how they turned out overall

I really like the new ride and the wheels are almost perfect IMHO. Definitely go with a small spacer on the backs. Great job, I think this kind of build proves that at times less is more.

Thanks man appreciate it.. The fronts sit perfectly flush and I think a 5-10mm spacer in the back will put it right about where I want it to sit. I'm running a 285 tire in the back and my previous setup would scrub the tire just barely on large dips in the road but with the new wheels I haven't had any issues at all. Still need to go get an alignment done
