Are you finding it a bit tippy with all the lift you have?

Did the 35's help in making it more stable?

Take it easy,

I believe widening the track the way you suggested more than 25mm in NSW is illegal
ie it cant be engineered. :cry:

Cheepest method by far (if you got steel rims) is to change the offet of them. Very easy to do yourself if you got a grinder and a welder and you take your time measuring to get them straight when you weld them back up.

Even if you pay somebody to do it professionally then I think it will be the cheapest option.

offsetting the rims like sam said, 55 dollars a rim.
