Do you have any pics of your Proton with the the machined/black GA5's?

mounted them... the offset is more than i was anticipating.. had to cut a good chunk off the front of the wheel well and looks like i will have to cut the back of the well too.. any tips on where/how to cut it?
thinking may just do a 1" coil spacer and crank the torsion bars to help too
I took the "bolt" at the corner of the cladding out and with some help from a large hammer made the needed adjustment. I did not cut the rear.
If you take the inner fender loose you will see that there is about a 3/4" spacer that holds the cladding out from the fender well. My original thought was to cut that spacer out and then put it back together. Thankfully the hammer was enough.
My wheels are +6 offset with 275/60/18's.

shot from the rear
spent some time trimming today, rubbing is all gone except for a very sharp maneuver in reverse
Does anyone know if 275/65/18 size tires will work on these rims---answer quickly please
I have the same wheels in machined/flat black. I had to do a little trimming too :yesb:
I love the wheel for the money, hard to beat. I love the chrome. I was tempted to get them myself, but decided the flat finish was better for my needs.
