Basically I have 6 and 7 inch rims at least as I remember. They may be 7 and 8 but my question is can I use these rims with GT flairs ? If so about what spacer size would I need. I think I would like to go with some flairs (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) I am plaining to drive up to Washington State soon (1200 miles one way (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) ) and I have the chance now to have them installed while I get the car painted.

i'd start with 1" spacers at a min.
one thing I noticed at the WCC up in Oregon, is that I prefered the wheel/tire fitment of VegasRacers 914 compared to Joe's Series9 car, both have GT flares, but I think Johns car is lowered more and that the wheels are closer to the fender lips....when I get around to installing my steel GT flares, I'll be making new 4-lug spacers to get my wheel/tire combo as close to the flare as possible... |
