That is a huge distance to push out the wheels. I hope it stays together for you.

yes bolts were changed as well it was all done the right way its not just a spacer that sits there its a spacer that bolts to my exsisiting hub then my wheels bolts to spacer nothing sits freely this company does it for lots of vehicles this wasnt just a trial...these are the right people to take it to if you want something like this doe....its what they specialize in

booya we are talking about stock wheels they have the correct offsets they just dont sit as agressive as aftermarkets .....I didnt take any photos..........If you dont like the idea or are looking for anyway to bash something that someone else did thats positive ....take it somewhere else...its working perfect for me no issues at all...been this way a year....no problems.....Just thought I would share
