Do you think you are bottoming out? Adding 1" to the tophat seems like it would be expensive to do right. If you are not bottoming out and you're just worried about the aesthetics and hitting the fender, I'd try making the spacers I did. If it doesn't work to your liking, you're out about $60 and an hour.

- No. I'm not bottoming out. I know my fenders need to be rolled. They rub the tires on my 205's when hit a corner real hard. The handling from stock setup to AGX/Hyperco really is night and day, but I just want more travel. I know what I'm asking for causes for custom parts to be made, but I don't have a welder to do what you did :/. Maybe I'll think of something else similar.

The material you used looks like the same stuff plastic cutting boards are made of. Perhaps Walmart Racing has another mod to offer the community? I think a 12x12 cutting board is like $10. I may try it for my Tein setup. Even at the highest setting, the rear sits too low, relative to the front.

- Well hopefully something comes good from this thread. What vendor could we get to make something like this for the rears? I'm really serious about this and I don't mind paying for quality service like Shawn B said. Anybody running 205's without fender rolling should get quite a bit of rubbing.

if i got somebody to reproduce my mounts would ya'll buy?

i have another set of frts and a set rears i think.

basically it's a metal disc welded on top of the stock part after the rubber insert is punched out.

easier to do then the epsentra fully fabricated type.

^I have two projects. I told the guy to make as many as he could out of the 12x12 board I gave him. I'm acutally surprised he managed to squeeze out the 5th one. Good to have a spare just incase something crazy happens.

cool, that should give you about a 5/8" lift.
