ok did a trial fitment again. with the wheel offset calculator, it said my new wheels would be 27mm more close to the fender lip. to clear the rear axle nut i need a 20 mm spacer! so added together, my new wheels are going to stick 47mm out farther than the stock wheels! that looks to be in the 1-1.5 inch range, OUTSIDE of the fender! wont this look like CRAP?????? i need to keep my center caps on these new wheels, and to do so ill have to space it out 20mm. is there any way to trim down the axle nut/ rear drum/ splines? to gain better fitment? and can i do this with say.... a grinder or a band saw, sawsall or the like? if not ill have to change wheels.... un less theres a stick on fender flare out there somewhere? lol
