So Steve you know I love your car, so PLEASE don't take this the wrong way! I'm just wondering, since you got the new housing and axles why you didn't go a little wider and get the wheels/tires out towards the fender lip a little more? I only ask this because all the pics of Penny I see make it look like the tires might be a little more under the car than they need to be...although it is a little hard to tell since most of your pics are taken at an angle and not straight down the side of the car.

This is the main reason I sold my Pentias, when I measured for the rearend I centered the tire in the wheel house when I should have bumped the tire to the lip a good .75"...in the end it gave me a good excuse to spend a lot on new wheels!!
