They don't look like +40. I figured at least +35 or slightly lower.

They need to make more designs in general. I like what they have out though. I always like mesh wheels in a slightly low offset.

Thanks sig.

This is what my passengerside fender well looks like now. That clip is destroyed on the inside of it. On the other side the plastic is tucked into the metal lip without clips. and it doesnt rub. but i think if i have time this weekend. im guna try and bend them up a little to get a bit more clearence. I'm swamped with design work right now so i havent even touched my car. i skipped a meet tuesday night, its depressing. i really wanted to kinda show it off, hahaha. but hopefully updates and some 4corner tucking pics this weekend. And off topic for this section, header and bike attachment for the rack somming soon.

okay, so took out that clip, tucked the liner into the lip, and folded the lip up as best i could with my bare hands, drove a few days, didnt rub, dropped it 6 threads, only rub with the wheels all the way turned and moving a speed that was too fast lol. basically i only rub right now if i TRY. i have 4 threads in the front left. will do some more testing this weekend after my stressful week at school.

quick question though. does anyone know about how much more vertical space above the front innerfender liner there is? like will it help that much to get rid of it/cut it? i didnt take it out, but i pushed up on it it doesnt seem like theres space about it.

there is a ton of space above the fender liner on the outer half of the wheel, which is where you need the most clearance. I cut a section of mine out and it helped a lot. I wouldn't take the whole thing out though. All I cut out was the outer half of the liner where it starts to slope down toward the fender lip, and only directly above the wheel.
