    If fenders weren't an issue.......

    While reading please keep the title in mind....

    I'm doing a swap and have been gathering parts, information and establishing a budget for the items I have yet to buy. Without leaking to much info the swap will have roughly 300hp right out of the gate, once I finish fabbing some other parts it will be in the 400-450hp range. I want this thing to stick to the ground!

    SO......

    If fenders weren't an issue what width wheel and tire section would you run. I'm thinking of something in the 16" - 17" wheel size and I'm floating the the 255-275 section width range. I would like to keep it squared in all four corners...... I hate, and I will repeat HATE STRETCHED TIRES. :jk: .....but not really.

    This is not a DD, nor a full time track car. This is my craziness placed into a car to go fast, get sideways, chase cones, chase you, make posers jealous and kill Vettes and the like. Everything that resides in a true motor heads heart.

    Much love bros!

    Let me see some pictures! I'll start.

              I want to rock massive fenders and fit a 305 in the rear but it would look hideous with my euro bumpers and mtech1.
              maybe its time to look for a vert :(

                  We'll see how the LSD hold up, I have a few fab tricks up my sleeve I might try, as for the gearbox its a tremec TR-3550 5 speed.

                    I should say ,I currently run 245s on 17x9s, stock fenders, just rolled.
                    its all about offset.
