What size are those wheels and tires in the rear? Are those some ET streets? Kinda wanna get some for my car on the front if they make some that'll fit on the stock wheel.

Looks awesome jay! Do you have big brakes in the front? If you do; does the wheels/tires fit on the front? I need some new wheels with some stickys but i need to know what fits.

There 15x7 40mm offset. BFG drag radials, 225 or 235 50s im guessing?

Thanks. Wonder what kinda of stock looking wheels would fit our cars that are 15's. I have a set of slicks that I swap out at the track so I'd just be wanting a stock set of something cheap.

And to stay on topic, looking nice.

yea there 15x7 40 offset with 235x60x15s (26x9.5). They should fit the front no problem, i just didnt order the other 2 tires yet.

nice build cant wait to see it finished

The build is looking nice. You're doing a great job with the sheet metal and the first time paint job is looking top notch!

I figured I'd stop by your thread after your responses to my stock block pump gas thread. I do have a question though, what exactly have you modified in the sw cage so far? Besides the sbars now go through the dash. Did the rear bars come like that where they atach to the strut tops? did the door bars come like they are in the pics so that they can attach the new custom front pillar bars? will this be street driven ever? if not i'd suggest a fuel cell up front. That will get rid of the need for boxing in the fuel cell with less wieght and shorter fuel lines.

Thanks man.
I used the supplied "dash bar" to connect the strut towers together, because that bar isent required. Other then that, its there plain jane 10 point kit. I also scraped the S shaped a piller bars and ordered the threw dash bars.

It will be street driven but not a DD, to and from the track, meets,etc. Thats why im running a 10gallon so i can get around somewhat.

Thanks for the compliments.

What an awesome achievement..Great build up my man!

 

[black92_tsi_awd]

Are you having someone finish weld the cage? Looks to be tacked together. I don't know what speeds you plan on running but some tracks are very particular about cage welds.
