With the stock wheels and offset you might get to 14mm. My car was corner balanced aligned and the ride height set so the set up is really nice for handling with no rubbing no matter on how low you go.

On the EVOsport engineering race car they've done 10" wide wheels with 305's. Loads of room inside the wheel well with the correct offsetand you can always remove the fender liner.

Sometimes you don't want passengers. Oh..and the 44's about $200k more. That's more than my social security check will permit.

200k more???????? The hell with the passengers then lol let them walk hahaha. I always loved helis but I stayed with airplanes instead.

Good luck with the sale btw you car is gorgeous. I'm gonna try 15mm spacers and hope they dont rub..if they do, I'll go with the next smaller size.

If you are interested in a BS or more specifically a Mars Red BS this is the one you want to buy. I have seen the car in person on a couple occasions and it is VERY well taken care of and very clean. All mods are tasteful and have an OEM look about them. That being said if you do buy this car I would not touch the suspension, the evosport set-up and corner balance is a perfect balance for both the track and street. This car is turn key and ready to enjoy, the only thing I might change would be to have the factory wheels powder coated black, Mars Red with black wheels is breath taking, but this car needs nothing.

Oh no I just saw that he mentioned spacers so I figured he could help me out with the sizing and rubbing issue. I already have a black that I should be getting delivered by the gentleman in the coming weeks.
