Exclamation Wheels question??????

Ok so i see alot of cars where the tires kinda stick out a bit and i was wondering how i could do that with my wheels?? Is it a spacer issue or is there a special way to offset my wheels?? they are already on my car so keep that in mind if it matters. I just think it looks more sporty like that! i hope there is a way

What kind of wheels do you have Stock or aftermarket also what is their offset, size and width also what kind of tire are you running example(205-15-R17) and finally post a pic of of your ride...........

Look inside the wheel to see if you see a decal that tells you the offset once you have that I can tell you what size spacer you need to buy I have the same tire size with a 25mm spacer on my DC5........

The lower the offet number the more the wheel will stick out... ie +44 will be tucked and +30 will stick out more.

Yea we need to know how wide they are??? And depending on how wide your wheels are and how low your car is your more than likely going to have to roll your fenders in the rear which not that hard...... From the looks of it right now your going to need a 25MM to 30MM spacer all around is up to your personal choice...........
