I assume they'll poke out a little bit in the rear. I don't really mind at all...  .

Nice wheels. Was size 18 not available in that offset for the front? For the rear wheels you could flare/ bow the quarters out.

I'm going to cut the rear quarters out. I wanted a staggered fitment for the wheels. I'll be ordering a 19x10 in the same wheel with a 0 offset then the 18's will come up front.

Well the 17"s came in last week, and I ordered my new tires. The tires should be arriving tomorrow....
Worked on the 87GT for the first time this year 2008! (DAMN its cold outside). Got all the old rims / rubber off the car , and just anxiously waiting the new set up....
Bye Bye Oz's... Progress tomorrow!

It'll stick out in the rear as well. I'm not worried. Whatever would I do in that situation.....
I was thinking about even widening the 18's to 18x11's and sticking some nice 315's in the rear using helds kit. We'll see.

Yeah it's pretty cold here as well. Suppose to be getting a snow storm here for the next couple of days. The 87 is in my personal garage, where there really isn't much room to work.
I'm going to move a few things around at our bodyshop so that I can move the car there.
Heres a 'brief' shop picture of the room I now have to work with. There is 7200 ft of space..

I could really use that space. I've got a dashboard for a center piece on my dining table.

Alright, well I got an 87 to mod up, how do I get it to sit as low as yours? That looks sick.

Street Dreams drop spindles and front / rear coilover kit.
I'll be changing up the springs in the rear though, I want it to sit a bit higher. I mounted the rims tonight, and I must say that they look amazing! I'm not at home though, so I'll post the pictures in a couple hours.
