We can set you up with correct offsets / tires, and rear dimensions and the parts.

Do most people narrow their rear ends? Is it becauase wheels looks strange when they are really wide with positive offsets?

What was the question again?

I had my 12 bolt rear end shortened, and new ends put on. I believe it was shortened 2" on each side. Wheels are 17 X 11 with 5 1/2" offset.

when you say put new ends on what do you mean?

and how much does something like that run?

:dance:

I had mine done at Meanstreets Performance, Vince did it. He would have all the answers. He created a page of what he did.

go to Prodigy or
 

If you are into doing it yourself you need to select your tire rim combo first, brakes and then measure for the width of the rear.

Can't one get the wheel to fit rear end? is there a optimal point where the center of the wheel should be?

Can you elaborate please?
