I did 30/35 that day.. I swapped my buddy Erik for a set of his 35 for my 25 and put my 5 mm slip on spacers on my front 25 to bring it out to 30 in the front..

Looks good but crazy *** spacers lol
haha, yep! I just found a nice set of works...20x10 +11, 20x11 +7, big lips too...only thing is theyre gloss black with a chrome lip, and i'd really like to go gunmetal or all black...not sure which i'd prefer...

could get my painter to paint them a nice light gunmetal, something like candestick's wheel color - i really like it

you're right, i threw the front bumper back on before the grill, and didn't feel like taking it back off to clip in the grille since it had to come off the next day to put the mesh in!

^ When the paint looks like the skin of an orange (bumpy texture). Just needs to be color sanded and buffed for a mirror finish.

Can't be any different than a 38mm spacer that I've seen people use from Ichiba. I'm bout to use 40mm spacers myself, but custom made.

OP, when you said fenders are cut in the rear, do you mean the inner part of the fender or where the fender usually gets rolled? Also for your fronts, use a fender finisher. It will at the same time give it a slight pull and it comes out way cleaner than a fender roll since it's thinner. Or go with a 5% less profile on the tire, or 10mm less in width. That'll solve the problem.

you would think that 40mm would put the tires outside the wheel well. guess not.

Ah damn, was hoping it was the inner fender wall. Was gonna ask for advice if you did that. That's what I need to do.
