I also tried it on two friends cars 69 e 67 fits on both with out any fender mods only losing minor turning radius tire brand does make a difference I have two sets of rims same back spacing one with bfg kdw they are rounded at the edges fits perfect others are toyo 888 did not fit well I made then fit but required a lot more fender modification.
How extensive were the fender mods to get the R888's to work? Looking for some pointers. I also hope to get some V40's ordered soon too, so I need to get an idea of what back spacing will work best with my tires and Wilwood rotors. I'm not against notching the sub frame to maintain turning radius. Thanks!
