Hi all, I have read numerous posts about the 5 lug conversion. THis question is kinda based around that. I know that using the 96-newer spindles pushes the front track about 8mm outward. My question is what offset wheels do you use to correct this? One car I used 94 spindles and all is well. Unfortunately I bought another set from the same person and these turned out to be the newer 96 version. I don't want to buyspindles and well honestly might as well use them instead of buying another set if I can correct the problem with my wheel selection. I would prefer to hear from those who have actually had this same issue.
