So I never really post anything because the reliable search helps me with my needs but this time I cannot find anything for what I want to do. I have a set of starion wheels I want to slap on my 2g eclipse but they stick out LOL its an off set set. Fronts are 7s rears are 8s... sooo has anyone tried and successfully ran this set up with no problems ? Tire size I can get away with ?
My issue that I have is front rubs on break caliper and rear sticks out about an inch. I don't mind rolling the fenders or getting flairs. Any help is appreciated.
My 1st post I'll try to add a pic so u can see what I'm talking about.
I put them on just to try it out. Apologies for dirty wheels haha

For the fronts you could do one of two things. 1. Lightly grind the brake caliper until there isn't any rubbing 2. Run a spacer for the needed room. At this point though both of your wheels will stick out. I honestly thing you would have better luck just getting a different set of wheels.
 
Just stretch somes tires on them and camber it in hard. LOL Most people wont like that though.

Thought I could get away with using these wheels amd just roll and pull the fenders... Was also thinking of cutting the fenders and getting a piece welded to it like what they do on some drift cars to make more room for the wheel even tho it sticks out. Only problem when I get tired of the look and change it I'll have wide rears and skinny tires

Dang this sucks...
Thanks for the help
