My car has 15 x 7 on the front and 15 x 8 on the rear.
The PMS I believe has 16s, same width 7 and 8. I agree with the fitting of the flares. It took us a lot of moving the flares around, a little nip here and a tuck here and some tapping with a body hammer to make them look right and fit right. Your car is one great looking car. I looked forward to every article wishing it was my car that was transforming. Is your rear valance metal or fiberglass? I have a fiberglass one that I can't decide to modify it to match up with the flares or to start from scratch and make my own out of metal. |

QUOTE(kfish914 @ Dec 10 2011, 12:27 PM)  Is your rear valance metal or fiberglass? If you look carefully at the 3rd picture you will see I cut off the stock valance at the corner and fabricated some new pieces to match the flares and then welded them on |
