Bridgestone RE71Rs/NM Re05s 17x7.5 Rims/ECS 10mm Spacers

Finally got the245s mounted in place of the 225s on 7.5" Rims...needed 10mm Spacers to clear the front strut. There are still a few small adjustments/trimming/alignment changes to be made...
but they will fit and I hope increase grip for future AutoXs coming up. They feel great...They are a bit taller and wider but I think both those things will benefit me in an AutoX...Width for Grip and
Height for Gearing (want to stay in 2nd gear on most courses. Track width is basically at it's maximum with allowed mods...

Just one note...Although the NM Wheels do swap out perfectly for stock wheels, the ECS Spacers don't fit perfectly. I had to turn down the beveled edge just a bit to get the wheels to sit flush on the NM Wheels.
