New 17's

Some shots of the 17's......8's and 10's with 225/275. They have used Victor Racers for the track right now. I put them on a roof rack for track days, amazing how stable the car feels with that much tire on the ground. What do you guys think?

I had the rear oil lines re-routed so they follow the inside of the fender, the fenders were rolled. Unfortunately some chipping because of a bad paint job in the past, spacers and longer studs in back. I had them made through Dave at Road and Race, he sells tons of P-car parts. He is not always the lowest price but he always has "that" part you need.
When the Victors are done I'll put some street tires for regular driving so daily driving is still on the 6's and 7's. I'll post a pick of the oil line.

Looks nice.

275's are usally a bit tall I think.

What is your rear fender height please? 26 1/2?

What rear torsion bars/sways?

Does it rub anywhere?

Nice job.

Thanks!

It dose look a bit high in the picture out back. Looks like an inch or more above the tire which I why I was guessing 26 to 26.5 inch out back.

Did you lower it after the pic?
