Looks good. Just curious why you want to put spacers on the rear? I thought the vert and the coupe used the same offset for the wheels.

I have vert wheels on my 89 NA and want spacers. I want it to be a bit more flush with the body, they sit to far in IMO. What size spacers are you getting? I talked to Rishie at autoRND and he said get 25MM up front and 30MM in the rear.

Right, we understand that. But like Dak asked WHY do you think you want/need spacers on the back?

They do look very good though. Nice factory wheels, if they were only a little bigger.

Ya I know what you mean. They just sit to far in IMO, it would look cleaner if they could be more flush with the body.

Put some springs on it after you space the rear wheels. It will look 10 times better afetr that.

Do you have pics? We have so many town cars here (old service cars in junk yards)... I can get them for really cheap!
