You mean to make the tires sit out wider.......usually they are just used in the rear....

Scott has spacers..

Aren't you the guy with the head gasket leak? Don't you think you should be putting your money into that, first? :wtf2: :wacko: :blink:

i agree fix the head gaskets before even thinking of spending money on mods. The repair is not cheap unless u are going to repair it your self.

I had to put 1/4 spacers on my rears so the tires wouldn't rub.

but they are still probably the sweetest rims on here (if you are go guy).

They will roll this summer for sure.....plus they have only been mounted and on the car for less than a year.....before they were just in boxes in storage...

Ah.....I gotcha....roll on.....roll on!! I can appreciate any rim...doesn't have to the the biggest or the shiniest.

They are.. I wish I had them. I photoshopped my car a long time ago with gunmetal Ikaris (the identical copy of the Wedsports) and it looks amazing.

:ohmy: :wub: lol......Ikaris are great except for they weigh a LOT more which is why I got the weds......you know what's his face is parting his car out (maybe) he has the ikaris....
