Test Fit...






I can see why the wheels were damaged. He was running a 245/35/18 tire. I looks too small for a 9-inch wide wheel. I'm going to get an estimate from Weldcraft to repair the lip and cut the wheels down to a more front friendly 8-inches. Also keep in mind that I am running a 1-inch spacer in the rear. That is why they stick out to the edge. I would imagine that removing the spacer an 18x10 wheel would fit no problem.

The engine pretty much stock. Just a RR Cam conversion so far.

It's Gumby's fault.

Not yet. I plan on dropping it off tomorrow. I'll keep you posted.

The wheels aren't that bad, it's a little bit easier to see the dent in this pic.

I just dropped it off. Still smell gas!!! :mad::mad::mad::mad:


Looks like the biggest concern is where it goes over the axle. And since my car is lowered. It's even tighter. We shall see how it goes.



I really dislike other people driving my car.

Itll go over the axle with no problem Antionio. I had a 3" tailpipe on my car that fit like , and it went over.

Just got the car back, overall I'm happy... just not with the tip. And I don't think I'm going to be able to fit a 10-inch wheel back there either. That I'm bummed about. Here are the pics.







But I must admit it sounds pretty  good. :D

How close is it to the gas tank fill tube? Do you think you could get a pic of that for me?

It shouldn't be that close. The pipe stays below the pinch weld on the tank. Honestly I wish it was a little closer to the tank for wheel/tire fitment. I'll get pics sometime this week.
