I just purchased some knock off turbo wheels 18x8 et50 and 18x10 et47 and some Winter tires.

Fronts look fine (i'll put a 7mm sapcer on there) and the rear are terrible. It sits way too far in.

No matter what I want to get spacers to make it as close to the fender as possible.

What do you guys recommend? Who makes a proper spacer for it? I'm thinking 30mm spacer?

TIA

 

No spacers here. I think it looks weirdly cool in its dirty winter trim. :-)

pierre,
how's the paint of ur car holding up?

 

Paint?... There's enough dirt and salt on it to hide the paint, so... who cares?

Seriously, the paint is still perfect. Except for the chipped front bumper, of course... And the car passed the 230'000 km mark tonight. (Sorry getting OT)

have stock set of 01 wheels no road rash

 

Yeah, but at least you are getting around in it instead of it being a garage queen! Keep the wheels as far in as possible so they follow the track of the front wheels. It will improve your traction.

Honest.

 

79,000 miles on my 03 here - I drive it all winter also on stock hollow spoke rims and winter tires that are I think 265 in the rear. BTW - paint is holding up great and I have the clear bra installed...............
