Default Weld RTS S71 Wheels on SOM WS6

I have been wanting these wheels for a while and I was finally able to get a set. I want to thank Josh Hamming for helping me get them. They are 18x10 high pad +41mm front, 18x11 medium pad +43 rear. I put Falken Azenis RT660 285/30 ZR18 front, and Falken Azenis RT660 315/30 ZR18 rear. The last picture I have the passenger side jacked up.

Dude I have looked around for a couple of years now, and I have found some real nice ones but I always went back to the Welds S71. I don't regret it at all!

Did you still maintain stock brakes with no grinding to the brakes?

Yes I still have the stock size brakes and I didn't have to do anything when I put the Welds on.

Did you have to beat on the inner fender panels on the rear, or do any other mods to fit those?

I didn't have to do a thing other than mount and put them on the ride. Everything fits perfect!
