Hows the handling with the 335's? The sidewall looks bulged

If 335 will fit on 10.5 will 305 fit on 10 inch wide rims. Great looking car op. Are those power oval exhaust tips?

Thanks man, the tips are from a local company called mandrel solutions. I bought all my bends from them when I fabbed my exhaust. 335 on a 10.5 wheel isn't optimal but it works and looks awesome. A 305 should look about the same on a 10 inch wheel depending on tire.

Really like the meatiness on the rears

, Did you use spacers to get those in there? Any BFH mod on the inner wheel wells?

Considering you're dropping the tire tread width by 30mm and dropping the rim width by 0.5", and one inch equals 25.4mm, it would be fine, or at least better than a 335mm on a 10.5"

i got spacers with the wheels but have not installed them. yes i had to bfh and actually need to go do some more. i dont want to install spacers until i roll fenders, i'd rather rub on the inside than cut up the outside.

-matt

whats the name of the guy that rents the fender rolling tool?
