THANKS WOLF!!

So on a 1st gen what exactly needs to be clearanced in the rear on the control arm

I'm looking for a 40/42 offset, 245 tires, 17" for some lame big brakes.

Now just gotta find the right wheels...
No problem man! I know I searched all over before I bought tires this spring and couldn't find any real solid info on fitment. So, glad to help.

For clearancing the rear... The inside edge of the lip of the rim is what gets close. Some people grind down the flange on the trailing arm. Unless you want to run wider than an 8" rim, I don't see the point of bringing the rear rims in further. I'll see if I can get a pic of that inside edge on mine later today.

RPFs are hawt!

You are missing a headlight in that pic, btw.

Great looking car.
Thanks Aaron! The car is slowly but surely coming along.

As for the missing headlight, I was told that's how you go fast. I wanna go fast!
