On a side note, I think you should throw some spacers on em. Nothing huge, but at least push them out a bit.

Yea man ! U def need to have $$ to get them as u say! And I got mine from japan too! Shipping wasn't to bad ! I was gonna change to color to while I was repolishibv my lip and all but I didn't want to kill the originality of the wheel cause they are in the original finish ! Not bad to be built in 87 huh lol ! But I'm working in getting Spacers for the rear really soon I'll post up again once on with new pics

Yea they are all the way down , next step would be to take one of the collars off but I'm content withthe ride height ! I scrape as it is ! I know what ur thinking but my tires are plaYing tricks on u cause u might be thinking it ain't low enough or u still see a tire gap between the tire and fender but I got the tires just a tad to thin! I'm running 195-40 so that's how it looks !
