    Fender pulling

    Just how much can the front and rear fenders be pulled? 0.5" 1.0" 1.5" ?

    Thanks!

    You know I had a guy quote me 2 inches or so one time. He seemed pretty confident. Though I am sure someone on here has a better idea.

      The fronts can handle much more than the rears. On my old black car I did close to 2" in the fron and about 3/4" in the rear. I'll try to find some pics...

        Wow really! If I can get 2" pull on the front that would save me a butt load of $ and will only have to extend the rears with e36 or is it e36 fender lips?

        I need about 2" wider on each corner.

          I already considered this. However I already cut my fenders for the 275s. HMMMM maybe ill order some cheap new front fenders. I was going to do the pop rivet flares.
