UPDATE: Al from Safelite came by and put in my new Front and Rear Glass:





Will have side glass installed once we finish up everything and drop her off the stands and get her back in the driveway...just easier for Al to do his work!

After reading much on wheel spacers versus off-set rims, I have decided to go with off-set rims...which meant I had to start looking again:

This is the correct offset and I think would look clean with the 12" rotors behind it:

UPDATE: Another option with the correct off-set:

UPDATE: GOT a set of these to install:




Just Kidding...never thought I would post a B&D DustBuster on my build, but there it is...it was the only good example of ALSA CORP's "Alsa SofTouch® Paint "

That and these royal blue rims:


This paint is un-scratch-able and since I will be driving BluDream as a daily driver...it might make sense to go with this over Alsa Corp's candi cobalt blue Chromium Paint:


Please share your thoughts everyone!

UPDATE: NEVER Surrender, NEVER give up!

Still wasn't completely happy with the new options on my wheels after deciding on off-set rims over rims with spacers.

I really liked that BBS rim that I had found when thought about going with spacers, but only if they offered it in a 45mm off-set...

Well kept looking and looking and finally found what I was looking for and that was a replica that offered in different off-sets including 45mm & Half the Price!
