You need MaXX struts from Topline for the front. I have them and can't praise them enough.

The rear should be OK if you use a 1" spacer and do some clearence work. Topline's car has a 235-45-17 tire out back on a 17x7.5" wheel, under stock fenders.

Also, you need your disks and drums drilled for the 5x130 porsche pattern. Topline can also hook you up with that, or www.customspeedparts.com has great parts also.

Just be prepared to open that wallet, because there's no easy way out;)

thanx man how bout front wheel spacers ???

I don't know for 7.5" wheels. Then again, I am assuming you have the Mille Miglia 17x7.5 replicas, which has a 52mm offset. Those are the same wheels as the Topline car. So, I suggest calling them and asking. Or someone who knows more on this particular setup will chime in.

Personally, I have a genuine porsche 17x7" wheel et55 and I run a 3/8" spacer.

Again, you may or may not need a spacer for your personal application.
