Yep, the Canyon rims are 8" wide, unfortunately they have a 5.5" backspace. I just wondered if anyone had heard any horror stories about people losing their wheels going down the road due to using spacers.

A small amount of water drips from my overhead console onto the area around the e-brake after sitting in heavy rain.
Is this coming from the windshield, and what's a simple way to fix it??

Hi guys, first post here. I couldn't find an answer to a question I have about the brake pedal. Is there any way to adjust the location the brake pedal sits at? I'm looking at buying a '98 XJ and it bugs me that there is so much distance between how far the break pedal sticks out opposed to how far the gas pedal sticks out.
Thanks for the info!

That sounds really dangerous being that pedal is life or death..
And if you modify the pedal arm than it will effect the stroke of the petal and can limit how much you can brake

Its probably the wires, either driver or passenger , they get sheared and rubbed together and fail, my 99 is having the same issues. Basically you have to get in there and see what's broken and fix it. I just haven't got into doing it yet.
