    Sorry about your ECU luck. It happens when you buy ECU's off collision cars. Stuff gets shorted out
    Yeah. :/. Hopefully the next will work.

    Put on a spacer today. Im quite happy with how it sits now. It gave me room to go a bit lower, but I still won't be able to clear the lip of the wheel.

    I'd have to order new adapters. I'd probably need like 10mm more. I'm trying not to poke that much. As I am right now I should be able to go maybe a 1/2 lower... maybe more.

    cant believe i didnt post in this thread earlier.

    sucks about what happened to your ecu, but the new wheels are awesome.

    its actually the exact color scheme (BMP on cream) i was going to be doing on rs' eventually.

    they look great though.

    Actually that's what I did. I think it's fine though. I put them in-between the adapter and wheel. Adapters are wheel centric so I don't think it's that bad. I've heard of other people doing it.

    Cream is so awesome. Everytime I come home from work and see my color scheme I'm just like.

    I originally wanted to repaint them too.
