You would need to narrow the track of the rear of the car, which would be a very expensive undertaking requiring essentially replacing the rear suspension and axles in their entirety. Would probably be cheaper to have replicas of those wheels custom made with the correct offset. By the way, I saw that you're in Chicago. What part of the city? I live down in the South Loop myself.
thanks cmcdonald, I like the look a lot. My one friend suggested getting some camber and a fender roll done but I think in order to make it be a nice clean tuck and roll job i would have to add a lot of camber and a mighty big fender roll plus by the time i finish buying all the components i could of just bought the right offset wheels haha. I am planning on possibly taking it to fluid motor union one day with the wheels and see what the suggest. But i do not live in Chicago I am about 30-45 mins away I am in the Elgin area.
