Yours would require every suspension part to be modified except the brakes. You would have to have the lower arm built so that the strut goes in the same spot. If not, you would have to mess with the strut towers too. Then, you would have to find a shop to make you custom axles. All the while, keeping the geometry correct. A lot more work than what I had to do.

yup Vex Motorsports did my fenders. Ask for Johnny or Brian. Tell him Adrian & Eddie with the Acura TLs sent you and they'll do you right. I just got work done by them for the show. Brian put in the camber kits (front and bac) and wheels. Johnny did the fender rolling and fitment adjustments as well as alignment.

Specs:
20 x 8.5
+40 offest
Staggered: No
Tire Size: both are 245x30
15mm spacers on both front and rears.
-4.3 camber on rear and -1.8 on the fronts.
Major rub on the fronts, not so bad in the rear. My front tires got thrashed on the way home. The outer portion got rubber ripped right off from something inside the well well. Me thinks its the metal piece that meets the bumper and fender. Maybe shaving it off. dunno yet.

ok I found them, MB Battles but I only see it offered in bronze or gunmetal. Looks like he had them repainted? and its a 18x8, just the size i'm shopping for haha. But still many options out there
