What size lip did you buy for the rear?
F: 17x8.5 - offset = 37.7mm, backspacing = 6.23"
R: 17x10 - offset = 44.0mm, backspacing = 7.32"

A couple of weeks ago we had a photo shoot and i snapped a couple pics here and there while looking for locations.

Even tho our cars get some lovely hate and false accusations of some people that think "they know us" lol....
