Shit dude. Does that pee you off at all? I know I wouldn't be happy rolling any of my guards.

I was kind of pissed too, but it's my own falt. The offset is 35 and i needed 40. Those wheels would work fine on stock height or a little lower car with stock rear control arm, but my red car is really low. I even put as much negative camber as I could and hopping to clear the fender but it made it wors, because the edge of tire became higher. I had plane to put those wheels on my green car which was using stock springs, but the car got total before I get a chance to do it.

You totaled the green machine? Why do I not know about this? Or do I?

you do.remember the engine on red car is from the green car. i was so pissed when someone t-boned my green car,because i bought it really cheap and it had low mileag on it. when i bought it , it had only 55k miles on it and i payed $8.5 for it. when the guy t-boned me it had 74k miles on it with a new engine under the hood.after that i couldn't find a cheap low mileag 93+ vr4. i bought the red car for $8k and it had 163k miles on it but it wasn't bone stock so i went ahead and bought it had the new engine sitting in my green car too so i bought it any way.
some old cell picture of green car.

I kind of remember the changing over process. Such a shame on the green beast. :(
