    they will be $350 shipped unless we get a group buy going. the rear flares will need a few minor tweaks to my template to work w/ early cars but I should have an early model set done as soon as I sell a late model set to fund the early model set.

      Mind getting a little bit more up close pictures of the front flares with how it fits with the fender's shadowline?

        When you get some REALLY meaty tires, you'll need to trim down that front bumper and more of the fender down to the side skirt.

                I gotta say, I don't like it, but I like it more than these.

                    not 100% sure but definitely 17x9's and probably staggered tire sizes. pretty sure with stiff enough subframe bushings I could get a 275 out back fine and up front a 255 would leave me with an ok turning radius. I currently hit my side skirts and a bit of the valance next to the bumper at full lock. I'm only on Potenza 225's but they run really wide. according to tire rack the tread width is the same if not wider than some 245's.

                          I'd be in for a set for an early model car as well.

                              OK so I talked to my fiberglass guy and for another $50 I can get these an ADDITIONAL one inch wider up front and an extra 1.25" in the back. Although keep in mind that will overhang your bumper by about 1".

                                275/35/15 maybe.

                                Here is 745/40/17 continental slicks showing that I need to hack up more of the body/fender. Where did you get that rubber between the fender/body? I might pull my fenders and not rivet/silicone them when when I put them back on. 255/40/17 or 255/35/18 should fit no problem. 285/30/18 is something I'd like to try someday.
