Well, you might be able to get it to work w/rolled fenders and the right tires.

 

The P5 I saw it on (chuyler1 on that other forum) I believe was running 205/50-16 tires.. they were big looking. I do believe he eventually rolled his fenders, but don't know how much he really needed to. Sedans have a bit more clearance so maybe it'll work without? Either way it looked slick

Don't roll the fenders man, it'll cause them to rust a lot faster. Not worth it, just get wheels with the right offset.

 

So mine would have been bubbling and rusting before 45k miles? I doubt it. If you roll them correctly and finish it after (coating the metal with a protectant) it won't rust any faster.

 

Nice, good luck with it. I'd be interested in the Racing Harts if you decide to sell them.

 

I still advise against the fender rolling, cuz most people don't know how to do it right. Kudos to you Kansei ..

 

Well if you want to sell, I'd buy them. Not that I don't have them already but I wouldn't mind having a second set laying around just in case. Are the hubs in good shape?

 

They actually look like they are the 2003.5 MSP wheels, much darker than your 2003.0 wheels

^ lol i know, hopefully everything will go through and be completed this week sometime

 

Thats a nice come back. The car looks really good

 

Thanks man!

 

Well I gotta say, in that pic posted by Kansei, I like the idea of changing the bolt colors. Interesting touch. I like the darker rims. I am probably going to get some different rims eventually. Why? I dunno. I like the classic custom five spokes that MSP come with, but I like a thicker five spoke design. Somewhat like you'd find on an Audi.
