Thanks.
I did not want to get into the rim thing. With thr offsets and spacer thing.
The out side lip of the fender was what I was looking for.

So, the steel GT flairs are not wide enough for me. I will be 70" front and 74" rear.

Could you weld on the GT's and then cut and fit a filler strip? Anybody out their tryed this?

Thanks again! Randy

The first to try this was Porsche in 1970. Many people have done just that since.

Again, there are already threads on this subject with plenty of pictures.

Also, check out AJ's GT site, it has a huge amount of content, including a how to pictorial about widening the steel GT flares to 9"/11" ...
