Wheel fitment

MJ86GT · 10-02-2005, 09:24 PM

A buddy has a set of OEM Cobra R58 rims they I can get for a really good deal. My 86gt currently has the staggered offset front to rear since I used the 95 gt rear axles with stock front track width.

Could I get these and use a 1/2" wheel spacer on the rear to make the difference of my 6.42 I have on now versus the 5.95 of the r58's. Or am I missing something?

Figured out that i was figuring backwards on the spacer. If I used 1/2" spacer then it would give me not enough backspace sticking the rears out past the fender lips. But fronts would work.
