You sure those aren't the forward offset ones? I have the whole front MM suspension and my wheels are still in the same spot as they were before.

Well I bouht them used the guy said they were normal offset, and on the mm website it says that when you use the normal offset a arms with there k member it pushes the wheels up like 3/4 I believe I'm just wondering if ppl have to cut there bumper or something

with a MM k-member you shouldve gotten reverse offset arms to keep stock geometry.. the non-offset keeps stock geometry with stock k members.. my buddy had to trim his inner fender with this setup.. but like stated above, only way to know for sure is test it..
