Damn man - that is gonna look sweet! Too bad you probably won't be able to drive it for much longer. Snow is already started to fly!

Exactly! You'll finish the car only to have to leave it in storage. Mighty good patience you have there..

WOW!!

Does the front wheel/tire clear your coilover setup? If so what spindle, k-member, and coil over setup are you running?

Going to look kick ass...

I will be running 18x9/10s on my car, but Bullitts and probably anthracite. Nice to see others running deep dish wheels on a fox!

And those "ricey" 18s, I love the look! Thumbs up!

What brand are the coilovers? What length spring?

Can I convince you to run a 255/35 tire up front? The 245 will not look good. I can provide pics of my 245/45 on my 17" x 9".

BTW: How is the car converted to 5 lug?

What is rolling the fender lip? And would you have to do it with a 17x10 in the rear?

9 duece send me some pics of the 245 setup, the conversion is not done and is up in the air most likely will be 94, 95 spindles,

Cwalk, currently the rears have fender lips rolled and quadshock removed as for rubbing wont know the details till I get some tires

cwalk, I dont have that answer yet, head on over to corral and search for deep dish in the wheels/tire forums for some answers,

9 Duece, as far as I can tell I am unable to determine the tubular k-member I will try and find out also not sure of the coil-over spring length, like I said I have some variables to try, I also have a set of lowering springs laying around if worse comes to worse. The front wheels have a 24mm offset and the rears have 22mm running the 95 spindles should be ok but as we all know tubular k-members are known for changing things. For the rears I am running the stock length axles along with north coast brackers for the disc

I have heard stories on here of 17x10's rubbing. Then I have heard some who said they dont. I think by me having a Capri with the flared out fenders. I should be ok. Depending on how far I drop it with the coilovers.
