Just got my 225/50R15's under the fenders. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif) This is the look I've been wanting for The Turd. The steelies are widened 15 x 7's. The offset is a little negative so I actually had to put 8mm spacers on. Yes, the rear fenders have been pushed out about 3/4". With the spacers I have about 1/2" clearance on either side of the wheel on the rear. No problems on the front. Been driving it through the "twisties" and no rubbing! Now I need to find a set of good shiny hubcaps. These don't show it but they are well used and I only have 2 of them.

You know Steve, I think I have to agree with ME733. Your car has come along way and in my opinion should be granted the 'gift' of a new name. You have done so much and it's hell of good looking car now. I realize the history that follows the car, but I'm sure with SLITS help, a name more fitting can be bestowed. You can always keep the plate to remind you of where you started. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
If you're really brave, let the club choose a name. |
