That's a lot of tire. What kind of power are you putting down? Looks like your driver's rear is facing the wrong direction btw.

Thank you sir.

Yes it is. Powerplant is the motor sitting in the back in one of the pics. Not as fancy as most here.

the more I look at it (maybe I cant really tell in the pics) I think you can roll your fenders more. I rolled mine completely flat the other day. but on the other hand instead of a bat I used a fender roller without a heat gun and it took me 5 minutes because I didnt care if paint chipped since the car is getting a full repaint lol . looks bada$$ regardles though

Well i was not planning on using a bat, i tried very softly and it worked so i kept on going. For some reason i really didnt want to spend 300 bucks on a fender roller, and im not cheap lol i believe in doing things the right way. But you are right it can be rolled a little flatter. Maybe somebody lives close by who has a roller lol

Im sure it will and well deserved too, you guys are much more experienced than i. However i feel this will suffice for my application since its a simple street car. Excited to see what you have coming sir!

CCW Classics in Satin Pewter for National events next year. 18x11 +13 (requires a 3mm spacer to clear the front stoptechs) and 18x12 +16 in the rear. Reason for the +16 over a +21-22 is for clearance for a 335 Hoosier A6 I want to test in the back. Obviously, the fenders will be pushed a bit. Anything over an 11 front 12 in the rear just makes the car too wide for my type of racing.

What size tire are you planning for the front?

I almost pulled the trigger on 18x11 +11 295/30/18 and 18x12 +12 335/30/18,
The fronts will fit with a small pull and some more camber, and the rear will have the same inner clearance on my current setup plus about .4 inches of extra tire on the outside, if anybody is willing to or already have agressive pulled rear fenders its definetly doable!!

Food for thought

I hate you. Can't wait to see the final project.
