^^ Will do man. The set up should be here in June, but I gotta call Don@TireOption to figure out when exactly they will be here. I'll probably give him a ring next week to so I can determine more of an exact date when they will be here.

I saw that you were running a +15 front and 0 rear, pretty bold man. Especially in the rear. I just went a bit more conservative then you and ran +15 all around.

Edit: On top of that difference, you have black wheels in the reverse lip and I'll have silver in the step-lip.

^^ Thanks man, I hope I get them soon too. I made the order at the beginning of April and having almost all exterior mods finished except the wheels is killing me. I wanna drop the car more, but I gotta wait till the wheels to get here so I can figure out a good stance.

I agree with you on them being aggressive, but I throw them into the lot of semi-aggressive. My offset doesn't compare to some of the guys that are running +5 offsets on their rides around town. (Nando's LR Jtran Built TT) Don't get me wrong, it looks nice, but I cannot justify negative camber and uneven tire wear just to make them fit and tuck into the fender when I drop it. You pay to play, and unfortunately, I don't have that kind of money.

To me, the +15 offset is just perfect for what I need them to do, which is to get me around town and still be able to look good.

Its crazy though, ever since I bought my G in February, I'm seeing lots of modded G's around town now. I love it.

That were a camber kit comes into play. You can still have uneven tire wear on stock suspension or a slight drop (2").... Its all about alignment & a camber kit, in needed.

Just like you said " Gotta pay to play"

Hey guys. Anyone know of another place that rolls fenders closer to the woodlands area? Sals is kind of far from my location. Thanks
