In the end all the effort in getting the combo together will be worth it. The stance and the wheels look stellar

Here are your pics since I know you can't see much on your crackberry. You know I have a connection who can hook you up with a real phone.....

When I'm able to pull the car out of the garage I'll get better picks. For now the car hauler is blocking the drive and I didn't want to take the time to move it.

Anyways, There are a bunch of things you can do to get more tire room.

Question, how much room did you have to the brake calipers? You maybe able to shave a bit off the center since its gonna be on the mill anyways. 1/4" can make a huge difference.
I'm not too worried but wanted to be sure.

I'm going to start cutting out the outer edge of the inner fender first. I tried to reshape them but it still does not have a sharp enough bend at the fender. I'll cut them out and fiberglass the edge instead so I can get a sharper radius.

I don't want to cut the pads on the front because BS is already as far back as I am comfortable. I went with 10.5" rims rather than 10" so the turning radius is a little tighter. Worse case I will keep the car a little higher for a while until it comes time for a repaint. When I finally paint the car I'll go ahead and add a little more flare to the front.
