I think the rims look great, and I don't think you should get spacers.

DAMNNN the rims look better on your car than they were on my car
you did a hell of a nice job making them look back to mint condition. Good job Derrick!*edit* no need for spacers, because they should align perfectly with ur wheelwell/fender from what I remember. BTW here's a pic of us when doing the rim sale/swap and me failing to install my cooling panel due to the bolt snapping.  I bet ppl in windsor must've been confused that day seeing two yelli celi's rollin' around. This post has been edited by _mikeE: Apr 22, 2008 - 3:11 PM |

I am loving those rims. I would have picked them out of a line up myself. I like the bright silver look and the wheel design flares out nicely starting at the lug area. AND they are at least 17" wheels. Great job!

looks like the rear could be spaced out a slight bit for a more aggressive look if its worth the hassle to you.
looks great

Derick, thouse rims looked good on mikes car, but i think they suit yours much better. If you want em, i gotta set of tuner wheel nuts sittin in my garage doing nothing. I changed mine over to a different style this year. Lemme know if you want em. It sucks that i wasnt down in Windsor when you came down, we could have all gotten together.
And mike, i think the citizens of windsor are confused enough when you and me are riding around, i cant even imaging what people would think if they saw u and derick. |

If you got some where to do it, and you rent one of thouse spring compressors from crappy tire then sure. are you going to be doing new shock mounts too?? |

I don't know man, should I? I think we should meet up sometime and do a quick inspection on the suspension my car and see if I need to replace my shock mounts. You know I'm not that knowledgeable about cars, this site have just helped me a lot to make my car look better.
