    Well there are 2 ways you could go to do that. First and probably least expensive is spacers. But alot of people dont like to use them they can be dangerous if not checked regularly etc. Second is you can have the wheels narrowed, by taking an inch or so of backspacing out of the wheel they will fit without rubbing.

    Very neat :cool: How much roughly would it cost? And what measurements would I need to give them? I don't know anything about measuring so if someone already has the specs it would be great.

    So what I need is if I were to contact them, what the exact measurements would be to make the fit..

    Here ya go Tim, black and black with lip
    IMO the unpainted (or polished) lip wheels really tie into the chrome trip down the body :thumbs2:

    You are the best :yahoo: The chrome strip is off the car now because it was falling off :( I wanted to see how it would look because I plan on painting it some shade of Grabber Orange with black stripes.. or something of the sort :huh:

    What does everyone think? Leave them polished or go with the black or black with a lip? But keep in mind it will soon enough be some shade of Grabber Orange with black stripes. I need everyones help :oops:

    Orrr maybe go with an 8inch Cragers in the back and a smaller (maybe 4inch) Cragers in the front :huh::huh:
