They fit fine.

Would be advisable to roll the rear guards, otherwise you'll need to run -3' camber in the rear for them to fit, which is actually 'natural' camber without camber arms or anything when you lower a DC5R.

There is a place on the Gold Coast that are really good for painting rims (Maybe you should update your location so people know where to suggest).

some people just need to take a second to re-read what they wrote honestly.

yes there's a risk when it comes to rolling guards. If your have crap paint or the roller is crap then your paint will crack. Thats could be one of many problems that can occur
