Looking at that mass of cables sitting on the windshielf of your car that still appear to be connected in some way or another. All I have to say is... yikes.

If you use those tires to get into the 10's, I'll be impressed.

I just ordered 2" spacers from Skulte and they look great. Spacers in general are very expensive but I was pleased with the quality he put into them.

The Skulte adapters polish up with very little effort too. I hit these with 1000 grit then 1500 by hand and polished the top one with tripoli for about 15 minutes.

Actually they are on all late 2001-2003 WS6 cars. They were also on mid 90's firehawks (95-96 i believe) just they were not polished and they had different center caps.
