fl327 Posted January 6, 2004 Share Posted January 6, 2004 DavyZ and I threw this around a little bit today and thought it was amusing. People run 9.5 in wide wheels with a zg, imagine a subtle z fender and quarter conversion with zg flares grafted to them, the mental picture of one seems pretty mean to me. You could get away with some outrageously wide tires, yet appear to only have bolt on small flares, since the zg would in part conceal the subtle z mild flare, You could run tires as wide as some of the guys with the IMSA flares but look almost stock bodied! Just a thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Zachb55 Posted January 6, 2004 Share Posted January 6, 2004 that would be awesome i think, just imagine the possibilities. of course once you do that, your stuck with the burden of filling those wheel wells -Zach Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ON3GO Posted January 6, 2004 Share Posted January 6, 2004 im running 10.5 with ZG's.. mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ToplessZ Posted January 6, 2004 Share Posted January 6, 2004 Man you idea stealers I was thinking about this a couple months ago guess its not my idea anymore. Anyway the subtle z fenders are supposed to add an extra 1.5 inches to the body so you should be able to run a 12 inch rear wheel. That would be cool. I am thinking about doing this on my convertible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Joe17 Posted January 6, 2004 Share Posted January 6, 2004 well i know u would need some big wheels to fill the space.. but couldnt you also change the backspacing on the wheel? i know too much might hurt your ride.. but its a thought... a question on the subtle front fender..... that fender replaces the whole front OEM fender... correct??

fl327 Posted January 6, 2004 Author Share Posted January 6, 2004 Im not doing any kind of mods like that, just thought it was cool. I like the zg's though, but I like the challenge of working with the stock fender more, but if i do go flares, zg for me me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
