[QUOTE="andymarkv, post: 16405739, member: 102900"] Finally had some decent weather for spray bombing... Because this is a daily driver, I wanted to clear the polished GT500 wheels. I hit them with a coat of Bulldog adhesion promoter & a few coats of rattle can 2K clear. Meh, up close they're not perfect, but from 5 feet, they look good! Since this is a 2002, it takes older SN95/new edge offset wheels. To use these S197's, I had to run bolt on spacers. Because of the body shape, the rear wheels sit tucked, so I used 1.5" front spacers & 2" rears to fill out the wheel wells. The 9.5" wheels in the rear were a little close to the wheel flange, so I trimmed 3/8"s off for just a touch more clearance. But at basically stock height, I don't think there would have ever been an issue. [ATTACH=full]1636052[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1636053[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1636054[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1636055[/ATTACH] Its still just a big & slow old man 4 door, but its fun to tool around in. Someday when 7.3's become LS money...that would be a cool swap! [/QUOTE]
