You guys need to read what i posted above the pictures before you click and post. Anyways.
Im not narrowing the rearend this year for certain reasons, dont mind the current setup as is. Running out of time with work in full force, want to drive it this summer. Yes i will narrow it with this current setup if the time is right. They dont make Welds in our bolt pattern if it was that easy i would have been running them last year, and between narrowing or not narrowing and running Bogarts, i dont feel like spending another 3 to 4k on wheels, or 4 linking it and narrowing it. Dont want to run stock tires not my thing. I know the options trust me. Ive racked my brain. This is how it sits now. I know its not for everyone. I dont fully agree with it either. But i want to have fun and drive it. damn does it perform. I want to enjoy it before its torn down for another 2 or 3 months. Thanks for the comments guys, its never a finished product i will get video sooner then later, and it will end up with the right settings sooner then late

Crystal Clears, i think i found them off Ebay or some google search and just bought them. This has been a popular question among the forums. Are these headlights hard to find or what?

If your looking for a quick fix for your wheel and tire problem you should look into rolling the fender's. Wouldn't take more than 3-4 hours of work, cheap and it should give you a comfortable 1-1.5" more cover for the tires. You could stretch the roll to 2-3 inches but then it starts to get noticeable.

Looks great man!!
