I have a really nice set of foose legends that just don't fit my car and will rub if I drive. Fronts are 18x8 4.5 bs and rears are 18x9 5.5 bs. Tires are 99% tread and only 2 years old. Both wheels and tires have less than 100 miles in them. Give me a call if you have any questions
Tires are Bridgestone re760 sport 245/40r18,275/35r18
Located in sf bay area
prefer local pick up but can ship

nice ride you got there. I love the side exit exhaust set up, can you give me some details on how the exhaust is routed? which muffler model number would be great.

Maybe you could add some negative camber before you give up on those wheels....

The exhaust scraps on everything. I'll try to snap a pic from underneath for you. Pm me your email address. I'm having a few problems getting more negative camber. First is my upper control arm is hitting header and preventing more negative camber. My ride height is too low and need to raise it because it rubs on upper fender well. The problem with raising car is I will gain more positive camber thus causing more rubbing. I need to beat in the header to make more space so my bushings don't melt and find a wheel with .75-1" less front spacing. Already cut a tire and replace under road hazard.

Flow masters. 40 series. 3" from header into 3.5" tips. Too loud if you ask me

Get some SPC upper arms from scandc.com. You can adjust camber and caster without using shims.

Keith, dont give up. keep chipping away at it. Do you have worn balljoints? ride height, a arms is very simple to fix on this car. even if you dont do the work yourself, get a proficient neighborhood gear head kid to do the work. read up, suspension components (Moog) brand are good, can get at autozone, and dont cost alot. Your halfways there already with that nice paint job. I have a complete set of OEM front a arms with new lightly used pressed on moog components ready to be installed that will fit a 64 - 67 GM A body if you need parts. If you think your exhaust is loud then you prolly have it dumped forward of the rear alxe, (`been there done that), goto a muffler shop than have them route the exhaust up and over the rear axle all the way straight out the back (will have to step it down to 2.5" for this extension, like OEM did). It will quite it down alot, you'd be surprised. It costed me $100 for this extension, 6 months later i took a sawsalls and removed it because it was to quite.

The SPC upper control arms are a great idea. All components are new upfront. Upper/lower arms/spindle/upper ball joint. Less than 100 miles. I will look into the SPC upper arms. I may change exhaust but need to fix drivability issues first. I do all the work just need to find time with two little ones. I hope the adjustable arms will fix my tire rubbing :)
