      I'm just about ready to pull the trigger on this. Any idea on how far the wheel will be spaced out from where it is now originally?

      I am leaning towards 1/2". but it might, might be 10mm. Depends on the needs.

      I should elaborate the space will be either 1/2" or 10mm. The difference in offset will be different. As the width of the hub to drum and hub to disk are different too, but I need to still measure that.

      I hope my wheel setup will work without having to pull fenders.

      1/2 spacing....that could be a problem...I have 1" spacers/lug adapters for my wheels so 1.5" of spacing will be huge

      Just get 1/2 inch ones! It should make the same spacing you have now.

      but then I will have to cut my lugs, and the spacers arent cheap at 300 for 4. I spent all my money on spacers so now I still need tires and coilovers. I have the wheels waiting to be installed
