That doesn't sound bad at all.

damn.. now I need to wait for those g-black +43 again.
Is that what you have? G-black le28ns? Thats what im waiting on and plan on ordering down the road. Maybe it would be cheaper if we bought a set of 4 17x7.5 +43 wheels whenever we need them. If you can wait to get the wheels, which i cant anymore, then just oder the +43 and cancel your order.

Oh shit. Well dont you have a +48 offset? Ive been answering your questions as if you have a 17 inch wheel. Im not sure what kind of fitment the 18s have, but it shouldnt need as large of a spacer. PM "aznhomie" and find out what spacer he was using with his Spoons and 18" le28ns. Hope that helps. Unless you want to run 18s in the rear and 17s in front.

My memory could serve me wrong sometimes. Anyways, do you think both 17" and 18" with +50 offset have the same wheel spoke deisgn (the curvature for bbk clearance)?

no. I think that you will need less of a spacer with 18". As I said, PM "Aznhomie" and tell him that i told you to PM him to ask him what size spacer he used with his les and Spoons. Should give you an idea.

Thanks Ryan. I just sent him a PM. Hopefully I can run the calipers without rubbing and fender modification with my current wheels.

You will. He had the same wheels and calipers. Just ask him what size tires he was running and what spacers.
