| you can also put spacers on the rims. you can buy spacers from places like autobarn and sprints for not too much. otherwise you should be able to scoop some up second hand |

| Just use a file, you only have to take out fuck all, it would take you less than 10 minutes to do all 4 rims. When you first put the wheels on they will hit on the shock, don;t worry about this as it moves back away when you lower the car back down. Spacers are illegal in most states anyway |

im sure grinding them would be illegal as well if spacers are. just giving him options. thats all. 
you do not need to file the back ones just the fronts.

thanks guyz i ended up doing it with my mate who has camira rims. we just filed the insides of the rims at the back of that big in the middle with a metal file... we found that useing a big file is alot easier ma sure it is the type with the rounded back and the flat top. but use the rounded bit.
i finally got then on and it look great
cheers fellas |
