Got Some New Shoes

Got these from Raz76 and put them on this weekend also swapped out the H&R springs in the rear for the eibachs that were sitting in my garage, rolled the fenders and put on the 15mm spacers up front. Wheels are 20x8.5 (245/30/20) and 20x10 (275/30/20). Mad props to Ray for the wheels and Alan (NiZMo1o1) for installing the springs, spacers and rolling the fenders.

Springs need to settle and the tires are 30 series instead of 35's.

Nice ride man...

Thanks for all the comments. Still getting use to riding on these 20's the ride is much harsher than the stock 18's.

Thanks, I had plan on removing the pin stripes when I debadged the rear but it was a pain in the *** so I just left them.

No it does not rub when turning. Offset for the front is +40 so with the spacers its +25 no issues rubbing with either setup. It does however rub slightly on the inner fender liner (carpet) in the back with passengers when going over large dips in the road. If you stay 20x8.5 all around you will have no issues in the rear.
