Other than your awesome engine bay the car looked 100% better the day u brought it home. Just my opinion. But I guess some people strive to be different. Good luck with the car and i hope its everything u want it to be.

My buddy works for safelite and might be down to remove and reinstall it for you. Don’t know how much he’d charge though.

Okay, test fitted the

19X9.5+0 with 245/35/19 Inset: 120.7 Poke: 120.7

WHICH would have the same effective outer clearance as a  
18X12.5 +38 with a 315/30/18 Inset: 196.8 Poke: 120.8

Which gives us an overall needed inner clearance on these wheels to fit the new of just under 3 inches, NOW for the inner measurement.

Inner rim to inner fender well 4 inches… problem area of the shock tower, inner clear 3 5/8" but we plan on cutting, grinding, heating, bending, whatever it is we need to do to get that little flap there flush.

PROBLEM, They are a bit to mexi poke for me so first intention is drop just over 1/4 an inch of poke out of the equation.

So we thought, drop to 18X12.5 +45 (just over 1/4 inch less poke) Inset:203.8 Poke 113.8

NOW, the inner clearance needed to fit that setup would end up @ 3.27 inches with the shock tower worked, I have 4 if not a touch over 4…

This leaves me with just under 3/4 of an inch of play, for articulation on a stiff suspension, what does everyone think? and remember this is a 315 on a 12.5 so the sidewall flex (as far as rubbing is concerned) wont be an issue and remember, not a track car. what are your honest opinions? I know this section isnt much for this kind of thing but it should be interesting to everyone at the least!

I don’t think that’s anywhere near enough suspension play, unless you plan on never driving it and only rolling it on and off a trailer

My thinking is… in the pictures there appears to be some negative camber there already and going to the outside of that tire looks to be about an inch.

You really will hate yourself and enjoy driving the car a lot more the closer you get rear camber to zero. Tires will wear alot less, you’ll actually have traction. There is nothing fun about replacing a set of 315’s on a 12 inch rim every two months

Realest talk.

Cut the shit out of the inner fender and make them fit. Negative camber is gay for the rear wheels.
