^nope. Be the first. I think someone considered it but I haven't seen it done.

Thanstar's wheels are a custom plating or something like that. Definitely a very unique color but it looks great.

^yup. Honestly it was a pain. If all I wanted to do was drive around and have the car look good then I'd just toss more camber at it and call it a day but I do autocross the car and also plan on getting onto a real roadcourse in the near future so I wanted to keep the alignment from being too ridiculous.

Doing it all over again I'd probably just get 17x9+45s. They look almost identical and not nearly as much of a headache.

17x9.5 look a 100xs better and have a better feel while on the track.

Looking at your pics, that tires side wall is FAT compared to an NT01.

High Res so you can ZOOM in but youll notice I have a good flare going in the rear. I never rubbed but I did shave the bumper and a little part of the metal on the passenger side.
If you ever switch tire brands, your clearance issue may not be so bad.

Looks Good though!!!

PS....Id buy those
