If that is the setup I go with I'll definitely do so. With the plans I have for some mods this year there'll be a lot more pics to come

 

CCA4, to roll the fenders I'd like to do it the right way with the hub mount tool but if I can't borrow or rent one, I'll use a bat. I can't really see buying the tool for a one-day use to do my car, Hiwords, and a couple other locals.

Oh, our local shop has the hub rings in stock and I'm picking them up to
orrow. I'm hoping they'll have the longer bolts and spacers too. If so, driving impressions and new pics (with the car cleaned) this weekend

 

I'm jealous...you have snow!
nice wheels to btw

 

Doesn't purems.com rent the tool for $50 or so? Is the hub 66.6?

 

Actually the link I was given by the seller for the rings is 73.1/73-57.1 for these wheels. I don't know about PureMS renting the tool but I live across the country. I'm not gonna pay $50 rental plus shipping 3000 miles each way. I'll use a bat if it comes to that.

 

i've heard a couple people saying they'd use a bat. whats that mean? like literally a bat to the fender?lol just wondering

 

That's exactly what it is. You use a baseball bat and roll it around the arch of the wheelwell arch to flatten the fender lip up and under the fender itself. It gives a little more clearance for a tire to tuck in when the suspension compresses or for a serious drop.

 

wow didnt think a bat would do that. sounds cool, id wanna try but id be afraid to mess the fenders up.

 

Yeah, I would need to see a really good DIY before I even thought about doing something like that...

 

agreed.
