weldcraftwheels.com widenned them, this is an AP1 Rear widenned an inch to 8.5", I run standard ap1 rears on the front:



I have to run at least a 5mm spacer at the back because they are a crazy +73 or something offset now

Being Ap1's they are a bit heavier than the other other options. They other options cost about $300+/wheel so its a lot cheaper overall.

This is how they look on the car with 225/50/16 tires, 25mm spacer rear and 5mm front.. I didn't do any fender work it will rub over big bumps but nothing major:

I'm using much of the same theory but running a smaller tire (due to class rules)
I'm running a 14.3lbs 17x8 with a 225/40 17 tire. 23.9inches tall. It worked out to be quite a bit quicker then 245/40's on 17x8.5's.
