That 1/2" can make a huge difference visually. He may not need spacers for the flares with that bit of extra offset.

I had some wheels that were the same offset in the front as the rear. I just couldn't stand the fronts past the wheel well. I had them less than two days. Mounted my other 20's on and sold them.

Whatabout those flares? I looked at ETK to find the parts for a lower flare, but it was cornfusin'. Is there a bottom flare for the rear bumper that meets the wheel arch flare? Is the rear 4.8is trim just some plastic that stick onto the OE bumper? That could be compelling as a short cut to the visual mods. I do like the 4.8is bumpers. On Alpine white, it could be holy hell awesome. The back I could do pretty easily if it's small parts, but we've got to get some rock chips on this front one, 1st.
