And hopefully have some stock in time for Sema to be able to do quick shippments.
Will you be selling the the wing at SEMA?

Also the enders won't be ready by then right?

So is this kit just replacing the front fender and the trunk? I feel like having more room to work with in the back is needed given its a rwd car, I may be missing something though.

how much room do you need? im running a 265 ALL AROUND and have plenty of room left, and honestly you dont need a bigger tire than that.

Im not saying for me personally. I'm just curious in general about them giving more front room than rear.

Need more room up front. I'm only on 17x8.25s with 215/45s and I rub at full lock when drifting. Just gonna get worse with knuckles. Adding spacers will help but only so much with stock fenders. Having more fender up front would give the ability to space the inner parts of the wheels further out and keep from rubbing.

I agree with your statement on the rear though. I think there's plenty of room in the back, unless you're trying to fit really aggressive wheels with some serious lip-which I'm not so I'm good. The widest I think I'll ever go in the back is 235 but I need the extra power to match it first.

NEED THESE FRONT FENDERS NAOW!!

+25. I run -3 degrees camber for track and street up front. I have almost an inch of gap until I'm flush up front.

I have 17x9 +30 RPF1s on the way which actually sit the same, but are deeper/closer to the strut which means rubbing at full lock will be worse. Gonna have to look at some 25mm spacers up front and flare/pull my front fenders a little bit. Right now, they're just rolled.
