No they dont, the make the rear wheels come out more and are in line with the fenders, have you got aftermarket springs?

Good work!
Thanks. I thought about painting the calipers but painting is an issue on Maui.

Keep the calipers yellow!!!
Like VRALEXANDER's avatar, you should paint a yellow lip on your wheel.
How can you tell it was a launch car??

Thanks. I was thinking about the lip but am up in the air. Dealer told me or its on invoice I can't remember but I could be wrong about it being a launch car. Personally I am just enjoying it.

Playin around with some other rims right now but I haven't gotten excited to change yet. Too much surf on the brain confuses me.
