I'll definitely believe the wheel bearing thing, I just went from a +45mm offset to a +38mm offset and even that made my already worn out bearings a little noisier. Those rims are hot though. You might run into the same problem area in the rear that I just had to hammer into submission today, the bottom of the door sticks out into the wheel well and makes a square ledge that the tire was rubbing during aggressive turns.Not the sports page Not a magazine

Not difficult at all, maybe a little awkward since you can't really see where you're hitting. I used a 4lb sledge though so it might take some more time with a regular hammer. It ****s up the bottom of the door pretty bad though, you can see it all crumpled up and the paint cracked if you look in the seam along the door, but you can't notice unless your trying to look for it. There's too much parking lot damage on my car for me to care but I'm sure a lot of people would have problems with it, although I am disappointed to have to deal with rust prevention anyway.Not the sports page Not a magazine

F.Y.I., when rolling/smacking your fenders into submission, hit them with a heat gun to soften the paint, it's less likely to crack then. Stance looks Awesome, by the way.
