Awesome, good call. New pic?

comparing to mine and your's sticks out quite a bit! i can see how that can be an issue. my rears are 21x11 38mm offset. your 25's...that's 12mm more damn! when you ordered your wheels didn't those guys know what offsets you should be running and didn't they ask if you were going to be lowered or not

I didn't order the wheels, remember, I got a great deal on them from the guy who Savini gave them to for a show. He went to MFest with them once and then never used them again. LOL, and after MFest Nitto gave him a new pair rear tires to boot. That's how I got the wheels with almost new fronts and brand new rears. Luckily Savini gave me another deal on the replacement rear wheels with the correct offsets.
NOW I can lower the car some if I want to.
