Rears hit alot? Springs (oem) are too soft; perhaps stiffer springs. Like OME or IM's ;-)

wish i could help you bro. I have no clue. I dont even know the offset of my wheels..lol...i think they are 0 offset.

Took my skirts off and no more rub!! Freaking awesome!!!

civiceg94

Lol cool thanks. Does it have spacers on?

I'm not 100% sure that they will work for you. With that much offset you may hit the outside corner of the front wheel wells. You will have to run a spacer to run those as well, which will push the wheels out even further.

I run 15x7's with a 4.25" backspacing with 8mm spacers.

Here's a link to the wheels I have, you can compare the specs to have an idea of what I run.

Thanks i was using your guys info on here. And crager are the only ones. That offer 4.25 backspacing. For a 15x7. I think i might just end up getting crager. Even doigh i hate them being 26 lbs. a wheel . I mean thats what everyone uses on here. So i guess it aibt so bad.

Caddiman

no spacers here bro

15x8 with a 4.5 backspace. im assuming the offset is 0

BULLRIDER

Nice, show us without the skirts?

lol

pics after i touch up the plastic on her. They are all greyish looking.

Also gonna bedline the wheel wells and underbody. plastidip the window molding. (the bottom part, its showing chrome). Got my red/clear tails yesterday. and maybe tint the whole windshield 50%

scrape all you can off with a razor blade on those window moldings. I did the best I could on mine but I kinda wish I spent a little more time. It still is unnoticeable to the untrained eye.

4cylfiend

iTrader: (1)

Yep! It looks alot better when you take it off and start from scratch. Looks much more uniform/OEM

dogbiscuit

Oh yeah. Do light coats and take your time. just dust it each coat you can reapply every 15 minutes or so. it'll dry much smoother if you take your time rather than glob it on.

Cool! Thanks guys! It's little things that really make a difference in appearance!

cant wait!

finished my first tank with 215/75s...25.7mpg, pretty happy. was getting 26-29 before going to keep monitoring and see how consistant that stays. mix of highway city and lots of stop and go traffic there.

Airing the tires up helps a ton too! I run my 215/75 BFG's at 40psi

They dont wear funny either.

Anyone on here ever do the lift springs (OME) and spacers? bad idea??



gonna touch up the door mouldings tis weekend and hopefully the window trim too. Bedlined the bumpers and fender plastics the other day. I also touched up the calipers gloss black and sprayed under couting all under the V, and the wheel wells. crazy how little things make a huge difference
