Finally starting to save my front tires and get some good wheel fitment going.
Got some ebay upper control arms
![](http://i43.photobucket.com/albums/e389/shakedizzle/xmastreetz2.jpg)
These are such a pain to put on, depending on how old your SC is I suppose. Everything under there in my wheel well is so corroded and stuck on tight. I only managed to get 1 side on today due to frustration with the cold and it being night and other things.
eeeewww, old control arms
![](http://i43.photobucket.com/albums/e389/shakedizzle/OLDCONTROL.jpg)
and to go along with them I got some spacers

and yeah, that is my serpentine belt there just laying on the ground at the top of the picture due to the outer ring of my crank pulley falling off lol. More pics coming tomorrow when I'm finished.

I would not run spacers without the hubcentric locater, especially somthing that aggressive, but thats just me. I am in to see this stuff installed.

I'm not saying I have them, I'm kinda asking if these are the kind I should buy. And thanks
Answer: New wheels are very expensive, not to mention the cost of tires. Also you can't really see the spacers unless you're like under the car
