Default Couple of pics for the hell of it

Yes, it does need a bath. Otherwise, let me know what you think. It will be lowered in the front next, also.

Looks great. I love the wheels. I've only seen those fronts in spindle mounts but the bolt ons look badass too. I may have to reconsider getting a polished pair of those.

No minitub, just some minor surgery. Rear is narrowed 3.25 inches per side with a 5" b.s. wheel.

Maybe I will skip the Bogarts..these are the wheels I originally wanted for racing. I see your not running the stock front brakes, but will those wheels clear or spacers? Love those wheels, and thought they'd look badass on a NBM Camaro, but they look awesome on yours too! Love it.

you went 3.25" off each side of the rearend and didnt have to mini tub it? i am sure you have ofset LCAs right? looks like a 28" tire. still amazed you didnt have to mini tub it with the tire being tucked up so far in. did you cut the car at all?

28" tire. I did make make some offset LCA bushings. They are set all the way in. Plenty of work with the ziz wheel on the fender wells too.

Thx Jason. Been once, but couldn't make it hook. I'm going back next weekend to see what it can do. It will be in the 9's for sure.

mines narrowed 3" per side and 5" bs. My tires are tucked wayyyyy farther up in the wheel wells and no mini tub. The rear end of my car is dropped 2" over stock height and the 28w's fit fine w/o tubing.
