    What is the offset for the back ones? You might need spacers to clear the lip... Just a thought.. Congrats on the new wheels I wish my wife would buy me some rims and tires....

    Well, I guess I got something to look forward too. I got the same set up he has, but don't have them installed yet. The offset for the rear are 20mm, fronts are 15mm. Just a question, where did you buy the rims at?

    feros....ask wifey to stop by the installer and ask if they think it needs a 3mm or 5mm spacer. I'm a few hours north, but would be happy to help out if I can.

    I type slow...Old info below

    I really have no way to get ahold of her right now, I can only hope she checks her email from work, or can get online where she's at?
    We have alot of friends in the area, so I am sure she will figure something out.
    She sent me an email asking for my help / options that I wanted to do.

    Thanx PA CHarger


    ANY one else have sujestions???

    If you can get the spacers for the back that would be your best bet... I am reading this correctly that 05r/t to 06 daytona. Does the daytona have the road and track? If so that just might be your problem as that suspension is close to the SRT with out the brembo brakes. So there may be a difference in the fitment...

    It does have the R&T package.
    It did come off a 05 R/T Maggie.

    just talked to her feros...she's on her way to the tire shop.
    If she needs spacers, she knows what size to source. She indicated there is a car shop next store to the tire place.

    I'll google a few auto shop near there and see if I can make a call or two to determine who has the spacers nearby.

    Figured as much! I did call Advanced on merrimack, they didn't have any. But the guy there thought Pepboys would have them.

    I shot her a text message with the results. NONE of the tire shops around here carried them...figured we tried to get that car with shoes that fit!

    Good luck and stay safe over Feros!
