Will it work on eg6? Yes I know that its not going to handle great and effects all the suspension geometry. I already have adjustable coilovers so ride height can be changed especially since its slammed and there is no way they will fit now. I was going to try 15x7 +15 but the wheels I really like didn't come in that offset. Nor was a +20 available. Thanks for advice and pics would be great!

Well we will just have to see how they fit. Man I love discounttiredirect.com called them up and bang 350 shipped plus tax. So I am stoked went with dr-20 machined and gold.

Just finished rolling the rear. There is now no lip there at all.

Still curious on rolling the front there isn't much to roll. I bent the tabs up that attach the inner fenders.

Yeah I have a heat gun. So that will be no prob. I got the rear wheels on today. Its cool but needs to be lower. I want to make it lower but will need to camber it. Kinda on the fence about getting aggressive with the camber. I have 195/50-15 on there now. The fronts are getting 195/45 on those. Saturday we will see how it all looks.

On a budget so I used the two 195/50 right now. Once there done I will get matching 195/45 all around.

Ok well I got it all done so I figured I would post a picture.
Setup is as follows, Skunk2 Sport Shocks, Skunk2 drag coilovers, stock arms and links all around, Wheels are Drag DR-20 15x7 et10, Tires are 195/45-15 front and 195/50-15 rear, I sure do wish I could get a 185/50 or 45 tire but I haven't found anyone who makes those. So here is a pic. Sorry it's not the best since the car is in the garage.

Also just found the tire I should have gotten to start with. 175/55-15 Doh! That would be narrower but with the same height as the 195/50-15. I also would imagine since it would stretch a little that would also make it slightly shorter cause the overall diameter is dependant on mounting it on a particular width rim.
These tires I am looking at have a rating of 908lbs. Is that enough?
