No cracking?Yeah a little smaller on the front would be ideal but no biggie...I was looking at some 18x8 and 18x9 hmmmm Edited 02/05/14 04:12 AM by xr6tnv Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/87872-project-lemon-bringing-the-ba-back-from-the-dead/page/6/#findComment-1468857 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeh that would look good with the right offset!

About half way through the flaring I started to get cracking, So I wouldn't suggest going any further than that if you intend to not crack your paint Edited 03/05/14 03:59 AM by MA91CK Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/87872-project-lemon-bringing-the-ba-back-from-the-dead/page/6/#findComment-1469099 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bellato Donating Members 2,713 Member For: 14y 5m 25d Posted 03/05/14 10:19 AM Share Posted 03/05/14 10:19 AM that's a heap of guard work but pulled it off. Just dial in a bit of camber and you'll be fine! Iw ould flare the rear guards a bit to try make it look the same across the whole car and you can put a wider tyre on too then (if you can handle losing the stretch Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/87872-project-lemon-bringing-the-ba-back-from-the-dead/page/6/#findComment-1469179 Share on other sites More sharing options...
