Bufbodz- Are you running any type of spacer on the wheels? If so what size?

Robert- I'll be hitting you up for a set in a couple of weeks. We're working on getting the bumper paint right now.

Thanks for the specs on your wheels Bufbodz, it will help a bit with planning, although it looks like a friend who has a shop that preps a bunch of race cars is going to custom fab a new set of upper A arms, and modify the lower A arms with Mazdaspeed bushings rather than urethane, and modify them to deal with the increase in track. I 'll actually be able to have a lot more adjustability in caster and camber, instead of trying to just mount some really wickedly high neg offset wheels and huge spacers. BTW Rob, the flares arrived today, looking beautiful, and undamaged, and HUGE!!

Most certainly, I'm trying to figure out exactly what wheels and tires I want to use, but when it's done it should look pretty cool. Something along these lines, I have the same headlamp intake from Garage Vary, but my hood is going to be a Simpson extractor hood with functional vents. The turn signal intakes will be the mesh variety that REV9 sells,along with some Runabout mirrors.

Can someone do me a favor? I need a measurement to determine whether or not to pick these up.





I need the distance from A (edge of your fender flare) to B (the ledge) at that crease between the two white lines. If its less then 7 inches, I think its time to make an order for a pair of man flares

Is anyone running these fenders with 13" wheels? My Autocross car has 13" x 10"s on it and I'm curious if the extra vertical clearance from the smaller wheels would still fill the space up nicely or not. 12.5" front, 13" rear ride height.

To know that, they probably need to know your tire size..... without tire size, your just shooting with your eyes closed.
