Well when plan A, is no good, and plan B is too much offset, just go on to plan C, thats why the alaphabet has some many letters. So plan C ditch the 1.25 spacers, and order extra long studs via summit. ARP 12mm x3.25 x 509 knurl just in case you were wondering. Get them pressed in at the local shop. reassemble everything, and throw on some 7/16 spacers. Bang done deal. So now the front half of the car is done and it looks like the wheels are tucked in pretty nice and tight.

Extra long studs, to keep the tech inspectors happy and my *** safe.

Yes, most definately. I am half way finished gathering up the parts for the rear. Just recieved my Mazdacompetition racers number today. LIke a kid in the candy store. I came now buy oem mazda parts for a nice discount. I should be starting a thread here in a week or two.
