Damn those spacers look quality!! Still got lots of thread left for the lugs? Do you think you'd have enough thread with 10mm? Think I could possibly get a set? Would love 5mm for the front, 10mm for the rear? Pm me if your interested please.
 
I guess it would also depend on the thickness of the rim... Just ordering new kazeras so I'll measure the amount of thread poking out and see what'll work... Think you could make an extra set in a month or so?
 
just posting this pic so you can see 17x8 38mm with 235 40 17

As you can see in this pic I made delrin inserts, two different grades. Black really stiff and took 10,000 pounds of pressure to break it when I personally tested it, and I made white inserts that are a lot softer than black but still way more more solid than poly.

And Chris the one in these pics is mine, the prototype. You can whore yours out when you get it. lol.

Of course the first day I really drive my car in a couple weeks and have a race this weekend (at the track of course) to shut this ignorant kid at work up... And my throw out bearing sounds like its starting to go. Looks like im going to have to ride it out until after. Oh well
 
I daily on 245/45/17 nitto 555r drag radials :)
how is that in the rain? I was thinking of those in a 275 for mine out back but i was worried about the wet performance.

They seem to grip better then my regular street tires. Even when i hit the brakes hard they dont slide. im happy with them
