Yeah, I'd ride it for a while at least. You could still lose half an inch or so if it settles.

definitely. I have the MM adjustable spring perches so I can twist it down some.Looks good! Maybe it's me or I would have to be there in person but it looks like the rear needs to be lowered just a tad, like 1/2-3/4"?
Nope, fits like a gloveHow is clearance on the brembos? Spacer needed or no?
I take it that there is probably no fender lip left to roll by now?Update - I've been swamped with my side hustle lately and haven't done anything with the car. I did drive it into Houston on Thursday for a meeting and the rear tires rubbed BAD. So, I'm going to be forced to put the shorter fox length axles in despite trying to leave it alone.
Still irritated about that. Ill get to it soon enough. Side hustle is making some money right now and things should slow down in a bit.
I'd need to roll everything outward a 1/2", LOLI take it that there is probably no fender lip left to roll by now?
Nah, the wheels just hang out too far. I want the suspension to cycle effectively and not ride like a covered wagon!Stiffer anti roll bar (my choice) or stiffer shocks?
Couldn't I just swap the brackets to the opposite sides and cut them? I hate to do that to OE cobra brackets.Swapping to the offset brackets can be spendy, especially if you go new. I'm about to do the same thing myself
Offset brackets: $190
5-lug fox axles: $230 for no brand and $295 for Moser
axle studs: $50 for 10 Moroso, $100 for ARP.
Plus labor, because your time costs money too.
So this is potentially a $470-585 mistake on the part of the wheel company.

I have a new set of LMR anti-moan brackets on the work bench I've never bothered with installing. Maybe this is my chance!You could. I don't think you need to swap sides, but cutting them and putting them on the backside would work as well. You'll need to cut/shorten/weld the anti-moan brackets as well. That would be a a hell of a lot cheaper (re: free) than buying the offset brackets and SVE anti-moans.
Looks like UPR makes their own offset brackets as well these days
