I'm sorry...i'm just finding it hard to believe that you were able to fit 12" wheels running a 335 tire without mini tubs?? All you had to do was roll the lip and beat in the fenders? With those control arms also, that's all you had to do to manage to fit 335's back there? I'm not not believing you...like i siad, just hard to believe. Any pictures from under the car to see the clearance and all??? Would love to see.

Let me clear that up. I originally put the 18x12s on a stock height car. I did so with just rolled lips/cut out bump stop and BFH. I later lowered the car 3" all the way around and had no choice but to mini tub at that point. The lca's aren't 100% necessary as I originally just bent the outer lips of the stock lca's inward a hair in order to clear the tires. After I got the car back from GMR speed with 700+rwhp, I didn't want to take chances so I got the madman lca's and torque arm.
