Rear guards are already rolled. Wouldn't they need to be flared though? My fronts hit the guard like a mofo and they're only sticking out 6mm.

15mm spacers in the rear would mean 10+mm out of the guard.

get the 10mm spacers then. you should be able to flex the metal 5mm pretty easily. I got an extra 10mm out of my ceffy when I rolled it. Didn't need a respray.

just sell the wheels and start again if it's all too hard for you.

also helps if you stretch tyres. I tucked a 10.5" with 225's on the back of the cef. no way that would fit without stretched tyres.

your tyres are probably scraping on the front cos you're probably running Pat spec tyres.

nice... I don't see any hub locating rings on those wheels either. And you wanted to run 5mm spacers? oh dear.

notice rim isn't even visible cos the tyre's too big? if your wheel is tucked this is how it should be, but if your wheel is mexican then you need to stretch at the bare minimum to prevent it getting cut up every time you hit a bump.

compare this to mine:

see what you need to do if you're running flush or slightly pokey wheels?

Hmm... So fronts would be better with like a 205 yeah? And a bit of negative camber? Would that affect handling?

depends. if you like drag races only then it's bad. if you like cornering then it's good. if you like tyre longevity then GTFO.

more pressing issue would be to get some hub locating rings on those wheels. atm the only thing holding them in place are your lugs.

haha yeah, that's the other thing - if you go hub centric spacers then hole in the spacer need to match the hubs and the ring on the spacers need to match the wheels - or run hub rings as well as spacers

But did the rings match your hubs or your rims?

I bought ones to suit an MR2. So I guess?? 60.1 is the number I was told to order.

I really have no idea what I'm talking about, as you can guess.

    • Unsolicited advice? Keep the engine as close to stock as you can. Nothing wrong with adding some boost and making a little more power, but given where you are, you really don't want to try to make it into a monster. I can't imagine the roads are up to it, and the lack of locla support when it grenades will be a ball ache. FWIW, If there is a dyno around that you can access, then brand new injectors are a good idea, which will lead you to (at least) putting a Nistune in it, which will allow you to put an R35 AFM on it, all of which will make it possible to make it much much nicer to drive and live with.
    • List all of your mods. It sounds like an aftermarket ECU hitting rev limiter. Like a valet mode, or a cold rpm limiter? 
    • @Kapr Haha yeah thats the one. I missed that you had a built up engine, I wouldn't want to run it on there either then. It was good in my situation just to replace the original turbo on a stock engine. @MBS206Yep definitely not a replacement for anything name brand
