Title: New wheels w/ rubber and fender flares
Post by: Church on February 13, 2012, 04:53:12 pm
Going to see if i can design some custom axels, hub and suspension to accommodate for the huge width. For the body work Im going to just trim the fenders and bolt-on flares 55mm in the front and 75mm in the rear.

Front: 18X9.5 in
Rear: 19X12 in

Nice rims.  The flares are something you don't see often. I don't think they really need to even be molded in.

Can be cool if you go for the racer look. These flares are a bit different, but I've always liked the pic.

Minus the nasty front wing though.  O0

And I thought my tires were going to be wide.  Those rears are monsters.  Too bad the have those crappy Goodyears on them.

Your going to have to really dial in your camber adjustment or say goodbuy to the inner portion of that tread.

You'll need the knuckles and calipers too.  Wait....what were you doing with your brakes?

Edit:  It might also just be easier to pay for a few extra sets of tires.  I mean do you want to track your car?.

It'll be tracked. Also I'm planning on getting the Z06 knuckles and calipers. (c6)

The car is parked in my old house's garage at the moment, cant move it to the new house because I don't have a properly tuned PCM.

Side note: sold the wheels for profit. I'll fit on the fenders when I get the car over to the new house.

I sold the wheels. Looking to get a difference set. The Vette wheels would've been a pain in the ass to fit.

Looking at the Rota P45R2's (18x10 +12) & the Rota P45R3's (18x12 +0)

Heres a picture.
