youd be fine with 8 inch in front if you wanted....

BUT make sure the offsets are correct. Our car has weird offsets and most commonly found wheels will not fit well.

If the car is lowered, and you go with a 9 inch rear, Id make sure you have AT LEAST 55 offset, 58 or 60 would probably be better and may allow you to run 260 or 265s.

If my rear offset was 50, they would not fit on my KG/MM race lowered car.

I can not belive it those are the exact rims i am getting exept i am getting silver with a polished lip.

And thx to all for helping a confused s2k owner.
I just talked to myfreind and gave him those specs, and he said when we order them he will double check the off sets with volk.
thx again to everyone!!!!

Actually I think these might be a good fitment if you like the Silver Volk GT-C's

7.5 fr, 8 rear with 50 offset should be no problem, esp if you want to lower the car.

KG MM's are springs, not shocks dummy!

Hey Bio, if you do in fact only have KG MM springs installed, how much of a finger gap do you have in the rear? (it's hard to tell in the pics). Also, how much of a negative camber are you running? (I have a feeling I have WAY too much).

Cheers.
