"Rolling" the rear bumper for 29+" tires
I've seen this on ROBS SS's car, with something like a 29.5" tire... Anyone who's done this care to post pictures or share the procedure for their rear bumper mods? I think i'll be stepping up to a 29.5" or 30" tire when it comes time for new tires, but cutting the 1/4 panel is out of the question, and pushing the rearend back seems like the easiest way. I looked at ninefingers old post about clearing 315s in a stock wheel well, just didn't go into much detail about the bumper mods. Hell he's local, maybe he'll chime in and i can go take a look at his car.
Thanks

I run 29.5 x 10.5 x 15(s).
You would have to cut the front of the 1/4 panel. Also the inner has to get alot of cutting. It is a semi mini tub. Only the front half of the wheel well had to be cut. Also it is very close to the inside where the spring is. I did grind that down quite a bit.
I also run these tires on a 10" with 7.5 backspacing.
I'm sorry but I don't have any pictures right now. Over the weekend I am rotating the slicks and can take a few then.
