Well folks, I spent about 6 hours getting my front spacers and new wheels on. To celibrate, I thought I would show you a sneak peak at the results. Notice how far the wheel is sitting out. They are 17" x 7.5", 48 offset with 15mm spacers. As far as the exterior position, its comparable to a 27 offset on a 7" rim. Enjoy.

Are you sure that the wheel cant hit the innerside of the Fender. Because it has a 1/2" wide metal going inside of the fender!

Thanks for the comments guys. I got all four Wheels on and I am very pleased. Also, I must report that the Avon tires are very nice. A little softer (better grip) than the conti extreme contacts I had. The sidewall stiffness is the same.

The full Exterior 2.0 is very close. I just have to get my turns from Doggy and the conversion will take place. I am starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel. >>
