AWeb80 Posted March 28, 2008 Report Share Posted March 28, 2008 Matt, did you space it out like this? That is ~1/8" right there...I just upgraded to 1/4" last fall before I put the GP away...what a diff....they were still rubbing w/ the 1/8"....but not bad...now it is really nice and quiet.

GOT2B GM Posted March 28, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 28, 2008 I have 3/8" in mine. I think its too much though. My spacers: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AWeb80 Posted March 28, 2008 Report Share Posted March 28, 2008 Matt....just to point something out here...... You want to put the spacer UNDER the bushing...not the clamp...otherwise the clamp won't hold the bushing tight....and yeah, 1/4" should be GOOD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
19Cutlass94 Posted March 28, 2008 Report Share Posted March 28, 2008 adam, if he does it like that, its basically the same as just bolting it to the strut, which I did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CSI_MuNkY Posted May 8, 2008 Report Share Posted May 8, 2008 LOL I've been slacking they're still in my garage, Im thinking Carcone's in Toronto. I was with Matt when we got that quote... The price quoted was $125 per wheel. For that they powder blast the existing paint off, machine the lip on a lathe, paint the center a color of your choice, clear powder coat the entire rim. This is the lowest price I have seen or heard as of this point. I just wish I could afford $125x6... Jamie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
