I had to post before I finish the front set. (Teaser I guess)
Ah, this is for all the guys that told me I was mexi flush, and some that told me to sell my wheels all together. Thanks!!! I chose "plan C"
Note: I'm not trying to sound arrogant, all of the other cars posted look great! These particular gentlemen know who they are.

@a2dadamm I stopped for the day, it was 113 degrees here in Dallas. That's not camera glare in the photo, that is what 113 looks like J/K. My other car was getting owned. I'm not trying to die in that. I'll post when I'm finished.

@Mac, thanks for the complement, That was my fist time with a roller :P... I was looking at your car a couple of pages back, I want to kit my car after seeing yours lol.

Thanks man, and yes it's being built for road racing. I set out with the goal to tuck 15's.
I only suggest this if you reallllllllly reallllly like to roll hard, otherwise get yourself some 17's... 16's at the lowest. This is using boards to get out of the garage low... lol... I know some of you guys that think you know it all are tempted to say something like, "thats stupid" or "why would anyone think thats cool"... Save it for someone else.

Driving on the street is not that bad, just know your routes and custom skid plates made of woodchip board keep your oil pan safe ;D

Have fun with your cars guys, some of us will have to grow up and be a little more practical someday, but until then, keep coming to dead stops in traffic for RR crossings and driving in formation on the highway with your buddies at a steady 45mph Just kidding. Don't do that both those things could lead to a wreak and/or ticket.

What about weight? Or does that fall under "status" ? Steelies/diamond racing = boat anchors.

Either way, props on makin em fit, and look good...now where's the rest of pics, that's enough teasing

Car above ^^^^ That looks great man!

I'll get to posting the finish results as soon as I get the front camber all dialed in and the car repainted. >>>Hot Hot Hot outside.<<<

As far as weight goes, I haven't compromised much at all. An 18' wheel would have the same effect on the drive-train and over all behavior of the car as a steel 15' would.
