oh yea I've been meaning to ask you what brakes are you running up front? any thing to add to the offset?
Also hows the steering? is it far from stock? Cause I've been working on a file and well without the brakes factored in my calculations say your turning circle changed from 18.0 ft (stock) to about 20.8 ft. About 13%. does this seem about right?
Thanks

All of the specs. are correct.
My turning radius sucks for parallel parking, but is fine for turning corners.
Like I've said before, there is some rubbing on the inside of the fender lip, but at low speeds only, and usually with a full tank of gas or a passenger.
I could have gone with no front spacer, but that would eliminate even more turning radius. Overall I'd say the turning is not far from stock, I have no complaints, afterall, the rims were not made for a '58 beetle
Almost forgot, running CB dropped spindle discs.
