I think it's time for some Dayton Wire wheels

I'm a fan of chrome and silver and yours look great. I would suggest finishing the job with the silver wheel crests and silver valve stem caps. I put 6mm spacers with 38mm bolts. What size bolts did you use with your 15mm conversion?

the bolts were 46mm I think. They were matched with the spacers by Boothe.

New related question:

The car has 285/30/18's in the rear and 225/40/18's in the front, and to me the rake angle looks a little negative. Anyone have an idea if 225/35/18's in the front would cause any problems?

Change your driveway (move if you have to), then lower it, a lot!
