What a difference spacers make!

Well got my 15mm spacers put them on and got new tires to accomadate the rims being more flush with the fenders...

Really like the look ... might switch fronts to a 20mm spacers but its fine for now...

Heres a few pics... guna get the rears rolled a lil better since there is a lil rubbin then might lower a bit more to try and get rim close to fender we will see... i still have to drive this car every day so can't get too extreme

Very clean man! I had a set of 25mm spacers that I purchased from a member hoping to run +15 in the rear but never received them. Very sick setup!! I'll be posting my Ingalls rear camber/tow kit for sale this week when I remove my suspension, pm me if your looking for a set.

Edit: I would try to pull your fenders a little with the fender roller you used. I "slightly pulled" all 4 corners when I rolled mine also.

rubbing is minor on some dips free way or streets... i kinda rolled up the edges myself but i am going to get it rolled more so i can stop the rubbing all together

yea the spec in the sig is with the spacers the rims were oringally +40.... wish i woulda known before cuz TSW offers these rims with a +25 offset but i didnt know much about offsets when i first got these rims coulda saved a few $ since ichiba V2 spacers arents cheap
