You like the wheels ;)

14s and skinny tires dont suit these flares. The flares are just so super aggressive

Nup. Proper fitting wheels > poor fitting 'legit' wheels. That wheel gap and skinny tires is really gross. But each to their own, I'll stop filling up your build thread now :roll:

so thanks to Facebook i have decided on a set of wheels I'm gonna go with super lites 15 x 10 -12.

also i got drive shafts last night from Almaz and also i got some stock white mirrors of Jace so those will be painted black then put on to replace the Shrek ears i had before.

Balls are good to have or maybe bad? Whatever, that offset and width is insane

10" 6uls would work great and fit the flares.

So today we removed the diff and put in the other diff to find that almaz was wrong and the na6 4 stud drive shafts shafts are different to then nb 4stud drive shafts they changed pcd and length in 94 very annoying !!!! So pushed the car outside and will have to go back to almaz Thursday after work. very frustrating!!!! Any way orderded a window reg and tie rod ends. also replaced pedal rubbers.
