ok i have these wheels and there was no way of running the stock fenders so i put on the amigos reluctantly. They do look pretty sick, sort of wide body looking but I'd really like to know how to make the stockers fit. I trimmed nearly all of the lip off and we even shortened the arms a bit and still there's no way they'll work. There's another isuzu out here on the west coast that's running 20x10 with a deep offset and his clear. I looked at the control arms and they're not even aftermarket or custom. He's running hydros. does that make any difference? ok well I see what you all have to say.

It is the drop spindles that are the problem as they increase your track. You are running spindles arent you?

what offset are your rims?

I have 22x9.5 on mine ..they were to wide so I had a 1/2" machined off the back of the wheel..machine shop did it for around $130

why do spindles actually widen your track? never really understood that. how do i make my shit lay body without the spindles? i know i probably have to redo the bag mounts.

You shouldn't need to take the spindles out, but if you did you would need to notch up into the bottom of chassis where the lower control arm hits, or Z-notch the front.

how much are the rims missing by is it fractions or actual inches?

I have 20x8.5's coming for my 3" Body Dropped PUP and I know it is gonna be really, really dam close on the front.

There's a few things you can do to fix the prob - Machine the back of the mounting pad on the rim, thus giving greater positive offset. - shorten upper control arms (pulls top outer edge of tyre in)

The isuzu drop spindles are aim brand. Yes they are designed badly, and make the wheel stick out further. Since no one else makes them, u are stuck with that.
