New Topic but crosses into the thread about wheel hop:
http://www.stangnet.com/mustang-forums/841833-how-eliminate-wheel-hop.html
I post it so that it doesn't get lost in translation but didn't want to derail that thread.
Now... The wheel widening sites that I've looked at so far will widen one of two ways (seldom both)...
They will add the width in the inboard side of the hub --or-- the outboard side of the hub. Adding material to both sides is HUGELY expensive and that's if you can even find someone willing to take it on and then refinish the wheel so that it's smooth.
Adding material to outboard side of the hub is also very expensive for the same reason.
It's much less expensive (easier) to add the material to the inside which brings me to my question (and relation to the wheel hop thread):
How far can I go on the inside lip before I start running into the necessity of removing the quad shocks? How far can I go before it starts to look TehLame or cause handling problems?
I'd like to get out to 9 to 9.5 inches to comfortably fit a 275 series DR? That would be 2 inches to the inside of the hub for a 9.5.
Is this doable?
Is it doable while retaining the quads?
Spacers are the devil!
