Default Help with offset looks weird

I bought some wheels from a well respected rennlister and he promised me that the wheels he sold me were an upgrade to my 951. But I don't know, they look awfull weird. He is from Alabama could that be the reason why he said they look awesome in his car?




Anyway thanks a lot Sp_c_a_ T__l now I can move my parts car.

Lemmee guess. . . late offset wheels on early offset car? I have the same problem on my early '85 - need spacers (or early offset wheels).

those are definitely late offset wheels on your early car (i take it you meant 85 when you typed 95)

if you get some spacers it'll all be taken care of....

edit: damn jeff you beat me!

Chen - yes, 931

Lart - I told you before I sent them that they fell off my truck and got run over by the concrete mixer, right?

Why don't you post that picture of my license again to prove that I don't live in Alabama.
