what would I need to get stock vert rims to be flush? anybody? cause I have always thought that they would look better flush and wondered why they aren't like that to begin with....I mean in there a reason they aren't flush? like tire rub or something if you don't have the right set up?

Talking "Tsuraichi"

This is called "Tsuraichi" in Japan! This is my buddies FC and the fenders are cut-n-welded to match what ever rim-n-off set you want. Within reason of course. His wheels are TE37s 17x9 +22 and 17x10 +18. This is as close as ou can get in a sense.

Ya I want to get some peoples insight on that also. The size is 6.5x15 offset 40.
I asked Richie at AutoRND what he would do with the 15" vert wheels to make them flush, he recommended 25mm spacers up front and 30mm in the rear.

And I just wanted to say there are so many sweet cars in this thread, keep it up guys. And the bronze TE37s on white FCs looks amazing.

questions what offset are u using and did u need to roll yoru fenders or not?

I was thinking 17x9 +35 rear and 17x8 +32 front that way I dont have to roll the fenders at all.
17x8 +35 and 17x10 +12 and the fronts are creased and the rears are stretched

so, if i were to get some 18x9's with a +20mm offset all around i shouldnt have to get wide fenders, just crease it seems right?? i dont wanna go wide body but i MUST have these rims and i finaly find this set for a good price, but im worried about the offset....
