thanks man.
It helps when you take pictures with natural lighting and you have to choose whether or not to adjust the exposure settings for the subject or the background, and end up with blown, boring sky, or whatever else.
You can just put the sky or background that you initially wanted.

great pics, but I'm curious if everyone is running with the saleen offset (30 and 44 mm) or have some gone with 4 wheels that have the same offset. I am looking at these wheels but don't want them to rub or stick out.

All you have to do is search thru this site on this topic. YES, I have the exact combo you describe all 4 same backspace so I could rotate...you can put this combo either way on a stock f150 and have no issues what so ever w/rubbing.

you could run either all +44 mm offsets or all +30 mm offsets with no problem at all. the reason saleen made the wheels like this is because they are smart and realized the wheels sit more tucked in on the rear. therefore, they added a welded on wheel spacer (that's basically all they did in the rear) to make the wheels seem almost flush when comparing front to rear.

if you wanted it to look right AND rotate - you should get all +44 mm offsets and add a wheel spacer in the rear (approx 14 mm or 0.5 inch)

I want to get saleen wheels soon and its hard to find all one offset (in my budget), so what if I buy them with both offsets and when the +44 are on the back I use a spacer? Would that be possible to rotate them all like that? How do the fronts look with the +33mm offset?

Where is everyone getting their Saleen wheels from? I've been on the hunt and the only place I can find is the outrageously priced ones on Ebay.

44mm are suppose to go in the front but you could use them in the rear.
