Finally got moved into our new house and I have my garage , so the real work can begin. I finished installing my JNC 18x9 +30 with 215/35R18’s and an inch and a half wheel adapter from bolt pattern 4x100 to 5x120. I didn’t know if the turning radius was going to rub but , it is the tightest it can be without rubbing. Next thing is to fabricate my wide body kit out of 18ga steel sheet metal and make it a fender to lip fitment. I still think it looks good as it is now, but it should look amazing when I finish the body kit, put air ride on it and repaint it. 

Also the stud bolt heads were too tall to let the two adapter pieces fit together flush so i ground down each stud bolt to be flush with the top part of the bottom piece of the adapter.

Getting the 18x9.5 +35 wheels on

I had to swap from the ESR 18x9.5 +35’s to JNC 18x9 +30’s because that extra ½ inch was a problem. I ordered 2 1 ½ inch custom wheel adapters 4x
