i don't use them but , i just use them to move my fc around i don't drive with them on

 

[supman]

well i got some 25mm and 15mm spacers, would tht make it look ok?

The 15mm's would be right, but unless you have changed your lug studs, your lugnuts won't have near enough threads to be safe.

I don't know what width the 16" stockers are, but the MSP wheels are 7". Same as stock TII wheels, but the offset is 55mm instead of 40mm. They absolutely rub in the front on the spring/spring perch. You cannot roll the car with them on there. 15mm spacers should be perfect to remedy that...

It will be really hard to get those to fit.... The offset on an FC front is +40mm max with a 235 tire...The tire is what ultimately rub on the coilovers.... the rears fit work because the MS wheels are so narrow...

here is my +35 & +33 offset w/ 17 x 10 and 9's

I can't spelll today.... 235's front and 275 rear... and the MS wheels "might" fit the rear...
