Yeah i would find a coupe to gut and race not a hatch. For 1 it's heaver then a coupe and coupes are sweeter! But then i dont have room to talk i did basically what your doing to a SSP car.What are your plans for the motor? Stroker? peace

Click to expand...

are you seeing how far they stick out of the wheel well?? maybe it's just the camera angle? to me the backspacing looks wrong... i hate to be one of those guys who points stuff out, it wasn't my intention to be a dick

Its cool i think its the tires and the angle tire is even with fender and fenders not rolled under either you can see where it just scrapes the edge of tire when they tuck on hard bump corners etc....

These came off a 91 notch fit perfect

I think im goin to put 255 60 15 MT drag radials on them those are 275 50 15 junk tires

here is another picture

(I know im missing a lug nut)

I thought the same thing when I saw that pic, but you said it already lol. It does look like it sticks out a bit, compared to the wheels you had on before, it looks like its a lot farther out
