Weld states you need a 3mm spacer with your size...have you tried them on?
Mine are flush with the fender, super happy with them.

I like beadlocks too, but their really for racecars that spin tires on the rim. There's no reason for me to have them on my street car other than aesthetics.

looks awesome! any comments on improvement in straight line traction?
I've considered doing this if I can hook up 2nd gear with 900/860 at the wheels but very expensive so if still can't hook up 2nd on the street then I'll just stick with my 17" ET street r combo which hooks up 3rd well on the street.
