+38 & 7.5" wide. Can't forget the second segment of that spec.

I have +45, 8" wide with a 15mm spacers in the rear, and I think after all the #'s are said and done, it's like 0.65mm difference in stance, and mine look nearly identical to the OP's.

Stance = front or back, not side.

Offset can't really be noticed from the side. Barely noticeable here in the rear only.

I stated, 0.65mm is the difference between the OP's and 1 of my set-ups ... as in verifying phatboi's surprise that yes, they're fat spacers, but even in 8" width, they don't look very wide, nor 'stick out' very much.

I barely achieved flush'ness' w/ 8.5 +33 + 15mm spacer in the rear and +33 +5mm spacer in front.


I'd rather not stagger.

Now, on an RWD, sure.

4th and 5th gen have different wheel well depts. always needs a staggered setup to run flush all around. or same width but lower offset in rear.

the biggest obstacle is getting the electrical issues / messed up alarm figured out so it can be started from the inside..... If successful, from then on, its allll downhill. It wont be a DD anymore thus its going to be one of the wildest 4th genners ever around :eek: really, there are no limits this time

I hope you get that figured out. I cant wait to see what you'll do this time. Is it gonna be more of a show car again? Or mostly race? Or doin a little bit of both?
