what happens if your car hits a bump, or hits a bump when turning? BAM hits the fender?

Do you think that Bomex kits front bumper would look bad without the whole kit going on the car?
I think it would look a little funny without the rest of the parts.

That's why the fenders get rolled.

o on ur pic they look like 1/2 inch from the fender....

or are they totally inside the fender?

and i figure out that the offset is on the rim, but just for my own knowledge what is it? what is the difference between like 20+ and 40+ offset on a rim.

The pictures are from before the fenders got rolled. They're actually from before the car was even running. :wow:



Here's a great explanation of offsets: http://www.tirerack.com/wheels/tech/offset.htm . A +20 mm offset rim will "stick out" more than a +42.

hmm, so the higher the # the more it sticks out. And if you got a "-" offset, the tire/rim would stick inside the well, maybe hitting the body. coolz
