Finally, flush with the body - Pics

I finally was able to get the rear tire setup to set basically flush with the body line of the car using a 315/30/18 BFG drag radial. Tried a few different ride heights to see if I could gain any clearance to move the rim closer in on the body. Ended up with a great compromise, car still has an aggresive stance, suspension has alot more travel now and body lines are almost spot on. Now when you launch on it hard you can feel the azz sink to make the BFG work



Sorry, pics are a little dark (camera phone)

Thats how i want mine. Exactly like that. I have so much fender gap on mine and i'm using 275/30/19 on the rears. I'm thinking wheel adapters to get what you have. The car looks really sick

What are the wheel dimensions.... diameter, width and offset, front and back? Front tire size? That helps people pick the right size for their cars. I'd also like to copy this to the Wheels and Tire forum 4th Gen Wheels "sticky".

Injuneer, Front offset 42.5mm ? 265/35/18 BFG KDW II (18x8.5"), Rear offset 48mm ? 315/30/18 BFG drag radial (18x10.5") unless you measure bead to bead (18x11). (custom built 3 piece), if you want to copy it for the wheel & tire section that's fine with me

North Dakota Z: No rub that I can find, checked the inner wheelwell twice now after driving it a few miles.
