SO when you're talking a rebuild, all he needs is new wider barrels? How much for a pair of rear barrels to widen him out in the back?

Correct, he could of course change the inner barrels as well, but all he would *need* is larger outer lips. Price definitely depends on size on distributor. I think I was once quoted $500 for a pair of polished 8" step lips. In the OP's situation I'd probably see if it was viable to put the rear lips on the front wheels and source new rear outer lips. Might even get a couple bucks back for the used fronts on another forum (lexus / honda fitment?). Certainly wouldn't be anywhere near the $500 mark for reasonably sized reverse lips.

That's what I said too, but now that I'm getting close to due for tires ...

Just an option for down the road in any case. Certainly not going to tell you how to spend your money. I only brought it up because you were talking about spacers. Depending on how big and which type you go for, there's not a huge difference in cost for rebuilding if you do the work yourself.

Anyway, post up some more pics!

I think around 15 turns if that makes sense prob a stupid response by me. Labeled it with a marker when I first put them on.


Failed to get more pics this weekend due to me and my friend failing with his go pro. I just installed my camber and toe arms and added some spacers. Will get pics when I get some time.
