a couple of photos from Little Talladega Grand Prix in Alabama. With the S2K Atlanta Club. The track is like 1.4 miles but by the end of the day, it will wear you out!

5zigen long open end lugs (blue)
spoon xbrace
cusco lower tie bar
cusco upper strut bar
k+n fipkII
ate superblue brake fluid
goodridge ss brake lines
stock rotors/pads

(doing quite well vs. other car times too...car is basically stock lol)
next mods:
maybe do CR suspension (shocks+springs+fr/rr sways), have done the research already...stiffens things up, but not overly done like many aftermarket co's do...would be a nice upgrade. also doing aftermarket streetable brake pads too. i like to "run whatchu brung..."
^^Steve... wheels look good... I finally got them back to my house.
Thanks for the awesome deal!
And maybe someone can help me...
After seeing the wheels/tires installed on my car, it doesnt seem like ill be rubbing (255s all around on 17x9 volks with 63 offsets)
I guess ill remove the top clip in the front? and maybe roll the rears? Knowing me, ill fix it when I see something start to bend
/\ nice! I just rolled the tabs/lip that are perpendicular to the wheel in the stock form. i pinched the fender liner between the tabs/lip so no need for clips and voila.

heat gun recommended.
Ive read this before and im not sure if I understand correctly...
So I remove circular clips (how many) and push the fender liner into the metal fender?
-remove clips
-pull fenderliner out of the way or behind the metal it was attached to
-heat metal with heatgun
-use fender roller to slowly pass over the metal and push it up pinching the fender liner between the fender and the metal
-repeat the last 2 over and over
this leaves the fenders stock looking and the fender liner in place but allows more space for the wheels

I see... so I need a fender roller...
Im guessing these are the "clips" you are taling about?
