Sounds killer. Were you forced to narrow the rear for this setup? What is your backspacing with that?

Anxious to see how your ride turns out.

hey

my car im not slamming.. its going to have no wheel gap but im not going to tuck the wheels i have..the tire MIGHT tuck but i dont want to tuck the lips.

my setup is narrowed 2.5 inches on EACH end on my Moser rear end.

the bars will have to be custom if the axle is narrowed more than 1.5 inches by side.

my cars rear will be miss fat booty..

I'm in the very same situation right now. I have the G-bar and was getting ready to order a set of tubs today.
My Moser is stock length. If I'm understanding your post correctly, you could have installed a fat tires but you narrowed your axles more than 1.5"?

While I don't need a 345 tire, it would be nice to know how wide I could go with my axle at stock width, G-bar, and a set of tubs.

Looks like we are all in the same boat.

Update,

Amir's custom bars are at his builder, but not yet been installed. I talked to the builder today and he thinks they will be just fine, but has not had time to install them.

In the meantime,

I got word today from Air Ride that the Street Challenge kit for Project EmptyNest is on the way. We will be doing a full install, story and report back directly to Air Ride about any possible interference, if any issues with big tires. We will start using the standard bars, and see what, if any, mods need to be done. We should know something in the next two weeks

Thanks for the update Frank-

do you have details/specs on the custom bars Amir has, or on this "Street Challenge" kit?

thanks

Why didn't it work?

Mind sharing this other solution idea?
