With those tire sizes and offsets youll need to be lowered around 3" for it to look proper IMO.

Fronts will be flush. You will likely have to remove the tabs and screws from the inside of your fender and maybe do a slight roll up front. If you want to go really aggressive you can flare it an run a 5mm spacer. You can run natural camber from the drop.

Rears will be very flush and poke out a bit. With a 235/35 you'll need to pull your fenders 5mm and run ~-4 camber for everything to clear.

I'm pretty sure I'm gonna pick these up along wit his willwood bbk 6/4. They were originally had the titanium lip but are powdercoated black now. I'm gonna have them redone in silver p/c with a purpleen lip.

Ha i actually sent fab pics to my buddies telling them I got new wheels. Once they saw the front they knew it wasn't my car.


r1: what's the process of having the purlplee finish can they PC that finish. I would think it would have to b painted.

No purpleen for powdercoat only dupont or ppg has colors that flop that much. Ima have the wheels stripped and repowdercoated in silver then sand the lips paint em black then shoot the purpleen on it
