Thats EXACTLY what I needed to know! I'm glad its possible! Thanks

The fronts (with spacers) are close to flush, no spacers in the back..... yet...

forgot to say.... I've got a Brembo kit on my drag car that will fit the Lex, so once I get a custom mount for them.... they're going on!

Thanks for the comments and suggestions.

BUT I HAVE TO SAY.... No new rims! Not an option... maybe in the distant future (or if someone buys these off me) but I've got to get the Drag car on the track Then I can start making money there to put on the Lex

On the other hand, I like the rims and love how I can tuck the sheit out of them! I have a set of ugly 20's in the garage that I'll probably put on (since weather is bad right now) then I can see what it will do

heres a NON photoshop of them, what do you think?:

how does the handling on bags compare to a slammed/lower car? i thinks bags look dam good but just not sure on the handling. any input from guys who went from lowered to bags or vice versa. thanks

o yeah also im going for a VIP look and i know bags is a must but if i can get my car lowered and still achieve the VIP lifestyle.......
