Awesome project. . .

The 285/30 is an easy fit up front - there is room for more if you find yourself needing it.

The 305 rear can easily fit if the offsets are appropriate. We just shod a friend's Z with 315 R888s for the rear of his F/I toy, and will run 285s up front as well.

Did I miss the sizes (width and offset) of the new wheels? Sorry if I did, but I'm guessing the rear offset isn't very high. The front looks good, especially given how close it is to the spindle.

· Volk TE37 SL Wheels 18 x 10.5 +22 F, 18 x 9.5 +15 R

Unfortunately to get the +15's for the rear it would have taken another month or two so i went with the 22 in the rear, The fenders are getting rolled out to match up smoothly although it may still stick out a tiny tiny bit but no where near as much as it was lol

looks great, you should list a running bill of all the retail prices of those parts to puta perspective on a build like this.

Well per your request i did a quick search online for retail prices of how much everything would cost and including the price of the car itself and all of the labor it is approximately $92,000 to build this car, now that may sound high but those are retail prices, and lets just say i spent a good bit less than 25% off that total thank god for my sponsors lol

Nothing unfortunate about getting a good offset for wide tires. I would be unfortunate if you have to get +15 for the rear.

Well we are getting close to being done, the car will be back from paint next week so this weekend we tackled the engine assembly and rear end, here are the pics -











Check out the rest of the photos and become a fan at http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100001789426064

And we are also proud to announce that Uprev has joined the team as a sponsor of the car and SOHO is also now an official dealer.

Just wondering why you chose the Evo and Evo2? Why not something like the Circuit and the Pro-Adv? I must of missed it, Track only?
