Not from goodwin.

The lowest offset is +35 for 4X100 in 16"

http://www.enkei.com/spec_charts/RPF1.pdf

+35 & 215's brings it out by 10mm, not much; better then nothing 8)

Weather was nicer today, some quick snap's before work, my camera work isn't that great......

id like to fab up some pcd changing spacers... prob 10 mm at most.. just wanna see what they would look like first... heaps of people run low offsets but in 14/16s. i was thinking 17s might look a lil stupid?

Of course not Regie

They’re actually quite decently priced.

I got the 4 Toyos with 4 16*7 rims for $1400. Includes wheel balance but alignment’s on top – I got the guy to follow the specs Charlie Brown gave me anyways so he ended up spending a good 20mins on the alignment changes… well worth it ;)

Why?

By asking questions other people who may also not know something can learn.... if i search, it only benefits me.
