Do I run:
6's & 7's (I have 2 - 6's and 4 7's in Indy) 7's 6's (I have 2 6's in Indy and 4 on my blue car -until the flares are on-but it's in LA) Car is a 2.0 Euro-stock fendered (and plan it to stay that way). It may get a six in a year or so. 3 Season nice day car. Whichever way I decide the wheels are going to Al Reed for refinishing. |

QUOTE Wes Hildreth at H&H did it for him. He narrowed the trailing arms. Rich still can only run 205's on 7" fuchs though. Timo also did this modification as well, in fact I believe he built his own fixture for it, pretty slick !!!! What I'd like to see, is someone do the above modification, but take it even further and re-design or notch the trialing arm, re-locate the rear shocks (at the top) and modify the rear trunk walls so that widened Fuchs can be fully tucked under the car with no fender flares at all (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) (starting with a 6" or 7" Fuch and widen it out to something like 9" or so with all the new material on the inside) This would be easier with an non-trailing arm suspension from a 993 (I think) or even a Boxster (A-arm type setup I think???) |
