Default Progressive springs?

Hmm . . . I'm interested to hear your thoughts. Been looking at possibly swapping out my vogtlands for his kit.

Default Yes. The rims are OCWW and were not a perfect match. I use spacers, rolled fenders and had to take a

They are not a true 2 peice but they were quite affordable and looks amazing. They are kinda heavy at 24 lbs. but for 18x8.5" with a 3-1/4" lip...That's not that bad. I like'em for the daily bling.

Default What type of brakes did you machine down?

I have some BBS wheels that need a spacer to clear my brake and I would love to run them without a spacer. Did you do this to stock or aftermarket calipers? Who did the work? How did they know when they needed to stop machining it down? Thanks for the help.
