Dear, the parts I just sold paid for that part ;)  Group: Members Posts: 1,568 Joined: 26-December 02 From: Williamsburg, VA Member No.: 16  |
I have another question for ya guys....
I have some 15x7 wheels on my 914 with a 1" spacer up front. How much does the front suspension travel (up and down)? It seems like when I am turning and the shock compresses it may hit the flare? Should I trim the inner lip of the flare to help with the clearance? DOES anyone have a photo of the front tire on a car with flares? Or better yet a car with the tire at full turn?
