Lets update this thread.... After 1 month and a few weeks finally the wheels arrive... they take more time to arrive than was expected... making the long story short.. yesterday finally i pick up the wheels :happydance: here are some pics of what i ordered...

So I said forget about it give me the wheels and order those spacers :tup:... the Shop here in PR are going to provide me the rear spacers for free to resolve me the issue. |
I forget to post pics of the tires hahaha!!! here are..
