NEW WHEELS - pictures in horrible lighting!

Sorry the pics are so dark. I got 19" RPM 505's. staggered 8.5" F, 9.5" R, +38 offset all around.

I'm running pretty good camber specs with an SPC arm and bolt kit... The rears rub slightly on hard turns and harsh bumps. The Tanabe NF210 springs dropped the rear almost .75" more than the advertised specs. So I'm looking for a good set of coilovers. I want to raise the rear .75" and lower the front at least another half inch.

I'm really happy with the stance. The 275's look freakin awesome. You cant really tell in the photos but the lips are chrome

Can anyone reccomend a good shop in Southern California where I could get my rear fenders rolled?

I wonder how much West Coast Customs would quote me

Do it yourself. Get a wood baseball bat and roll/twist it between the wheel and the fender. The metal will roll and the rubber tire acts as a guide assisting you in rolling a nice arc. I help my friends with 911's do it all the time.

Your car looks sick! What did you pay for your SPC kit? I've got negative camber that needs to be corrected =P

Go to street Image in Balwin Park to get your fenders rolled. They quoted me 120 bucks to do it and they have the machinery to do it.

thanks for all the compliments!

I'd be a little scared to take a baseball bat to my car.

the SPC kit was about $230 shipped with toe bolts. $120 to install everything and a computer alignment.

YES THE PSP IS AMAZING! there is a hidden web browser in Wipeout Pure.

These offsets wont fit on a coupe. But I remember the 9.5" also came in a 30mm offset.

have eric do it at Street Image, but cut them, do not roll. you will most likely crack the paint if you roll

Here's what Eric did for mine:
