I think how previous owner got around it was running 245s
Ill do everything right though lol
Just need to find some tires that dont break the bank, as my stockers have some nice meaty tires on them as well, if I wanted to drag, id probably just slap those back on

Little confused then, 255s would require pull and roll, along with bolt relocate right?
I was saying I think how the previous owner got around that was running 245s

As I posted above:
1. I had the same wheels with 255 tires.
2. I believe the alignment was stock.
3. Rear fenders were rolled and pulled from previous wheel/tire
4. These fit the rears just fine.
5. I never had to relocate any bolts/cut/rivet anything but:
6. I was only lowered on Espelir springs. Lower than stock, but not slammed.
When you say, "I was saying I think how the previous owner got around that was running 245s" are you meaning he didn't roll the rear fenders? a 245 is way too narrow and looks silly unless you really like the stretched look.
Also, like I may have said before: You can run a streched tire (245) and "hella camber" and they would probably fit a LOT easier.

He told me he didnt need to do anything but put 'rear' spacers on, which I found out was wrong lol
Shouldnt have taken his word on anything
:-/
I hear that. Buying used stuff is always dicey. I was shopping turbos and actually ended up buying the one with "highest mileage". I say that because two of the others were claimed to be super low, but didn't like it. Seeing how there is no way to verify mileage...
When someone claims super-low mileage, with no way to verify, and the part looks wrecked... yeah. I'm going with another LOL. A lot of people will say anything to sell a part and I've been on the wrong end of a scam. I don't take chances, any more. Buying new solves all that, when I can.

dude you told me you didnt need anything and we have the same exact car, down to the year
Just petty is all
Then I find out from tons of people that he is sketch AF
Im sure the wheels are fine, he just didnt want to buy tires
Need to find me a set
Most likely going to daily these, and use the stock wheels as track as they have some nice summers on them
Might settle with all seasons for daily
When you rely on the seller for info, it's all sketchy LOL
Good news is they will fit with minimal work. Nice choice, too. These are my favorite daily wheels.
I've always wanted to get another set for this car.
