Why didnt you go with the +20s? I guess +10 will fit but its that much harder.. What you gonna run for suspension? 195 tires?AaronTietje wrote:Very close they are the +10

Re: ROTA 16x8 BRONZE AaronTietje - 1993 MX-3 GS
I'm thinking that I will be doing a custom rear 1\4 flair with another rear 1\4 panel. It won't be a "widebody". Rather it will look factory but be an inch to two inches wider.
We all want to be fast and look cool. Cool changes but fast never does.

Have you thought about adding smooth flares or doing a pull on the rear arches?AaronTietje wrote:I'm thinking that I will be doing a custom rear 1\4 flair with another rear 1\4 panel. It won't be a "widebody". Rather it will look factory but be an inch to two inches wider.
I saw sometime back a guy who molded in 1st gen mx6 rear QP to a mx3, as that have a protruding flare to them.. Just an idea

My biggest concern is to maintain the factory body line. Solo, if you can direct me to a pic of that mx6 flair I would def. like to check it out.
