Kirby,

You can get those wheels in any width, any offset. Sorry I didn't twig to the fact you have a narrow body car.

   Kirby,

   You can get those wheels in any width, any offset. Sorry I didn't twig
   to the fact you have a narrow body car.

   I do not have a Group 4.

   I have GTS flares on the car.

   I can go measure, but I think those wheels would have the tires
   sticking out the side of the car.

   The rears, for sure.

   The fronts maybe....
