Yes sir! Change your hangers for your exhaust out with heavy duty zipties and you can bring it up almost an inch and a half. its what i had to do with my car cuz its so low. just make sure you put the zipties on the hooks not the pipe lo

That's the best freaking idea I've ever heard... I can't believe I didn't think of that... Thanks dude!

I'll probably use metal hose clamps though, instead of Zipties...

The 7" does fit up front. It doesn't clear 4-pot calipers, but it does clear the singles. Here's pics of mine, no spacers, cut stock springs.

Well the wheels came in 3 different widths. 7-9 inches. I'd say the 9's would require a roll if you were slammed.

I have the 16x9's on the rear of my car, but i am very low and have QUITE a bit of camber. I think they would stick out past the fenders a good ways if you had stock camber.

i'm saving for a set of these, the ones i'm getting are 16x8 et-10 at the back and the fronts are 16x7 et +18. So hopefully they'll fit nicely under stock FC arches, the rear could be interesting at -10 offset

You'll probably need AM fenders mate, 16x9 will rub like crazy! What's the offset on the 16x9's?
