I'm not sure of the offset then.. And yes MP99 I've been looking at other Aleros with cleared corners and it does look nice. I'm just worried I wouldn't be able to put everything back together lol

Haha thanks for the advice that would not be good.
I got a question for everyone. I'm going ot be in a show on the 29th and I want to do something to my car that will look impressive but not break the bank. I'm thinking a new exhaust or engine dress up? I got a budget of about 500 so what would be the 1st thing I should upgrade?

Get some paint for the engine, thats only a few $$ then do some intake and exhaust type stuff, itl make it sound good and look good, for a reasonable price too 
There is HP gain in any kind of engine upgrade.
