Berry! Niaace!
Get some 15mm spacers all around and 60mm lugs and the stock wheels will look much better! It's a very small investment of under $300 total. As a bonus the over 1 1/4" wider stance will help handling.

I have a set of RG5's, but I need to get the centers painted before I install them. Would the spacers work with the Champions as well?

Thanks Lane. I'd say it took about 1.5 hours. It was simple, but it just took some time to transfer the console lid, side leather pieces, buttons, and clips. I'm very happy with the end result though! I'll ship out my old console tomorrow, so keep an eye out for it.

Adam, I'll keep my eyes open for the console. I'm glad that you're happy with it, and the install wasn't to hard. These cars are built really well and made to modify.

FYI - found your pedals on ebay if anyone is interested. 10 sets available. Think I might get them.

Adam, who did your trim piece around the unit? I have the same head unit and would like to get a trim ring that fits.

The shop that installed the unit custom made it. I can get you their info if you're interested.

dgreen78,
An alternative with the DNX7100 is the unit comes with a surround that fits the console left to right, but leaves a gap at the botton that does not look out of place. Attached is a photo of how you can mount the unit with the stock piece.
