Default need some suggestions on my wheel fitment from you xb heads.

thinking About getting some wheels for the daily. long story short, I want them a lot so I need adapters to get them to fit. I want something slightly aggressive but still daily driveable.

airreck has a pretty aggressive setup using

front; 17x8 +10 using cusco camber plates
rear; 17x9.5 +19 using otg camber shims

pix (props to him btw)








my wheels, after adapters, would be;

front; 17x8 +16
rear; 17x9 +21
(by the way, I can go lower on the offsets... just not higher bc of the adapters)

I want something slightly aggressive and I'd also use otg shims and camber the front. I'd be using a stretched 205/40 tire to go lower.

my question is, is this practical? you think I'd run into any problems? any advice on the above setup or should I continue looking?

thx guys

that doesnt look too practical yo.... form your thread on HI i got the impression this was going to be your daily, that you werent going to fix up, that you drove while you worked on your damn mini van.... that setup would make me cringe over every bump or anytime i even saw a curb....
