Thanks!
Thanks man! You can theoretically run and wheel size in 5x120 with the adapters.The only thing you'll need to do is some research on wheel offsets and fitment for our cars and make sure to include the additional 17mm for whatever wheel you decide to run. I've been doing a lot of research over the past few months now so feel free to PM me with any questions and I'll try to help you out.
This wheel offset calculator helps a lot if you want to play with wheel offsets:

I might be interested in your side skirts. PM sent.

It is extremely useful, except that it does not add any offset when you go to a wider tire. You have to manually add half the additional increase in tire width (5mm when going to a 305 tire) to figure where the face will be.

Haha thanks man. Still trying to figure out how to bolt the reverse lights up as the V8 mounting points are different. I'll probably try to find a takeoff V8 mounting bracket or just buy them new.

I'll try to get a video soon. It's LOUD. Wheels are still sitting in the boxes for now.
Thanks dude. Have you decided what route you want to go for exhaust?

Does anyone know where to jack the car up in the middle of the front as well as the middle of the rear? I am going to be installing my new wheels/tires tomorrow and would like to jack the car up one end up at a time and then place jack stands underneath. I searched all morning with no luck! Only people looking to jack a car one corner at a time.

2. The car can be jacked from the rear, but to do so safely still requires 2 jacks on either side of the rear pumpkin.
However, you can use the forward jacking points on each side to raise both front and back at the same time, accomplishing what you want to do.

The new exhaust might be a little too loud for me so I might be taking it off to sell. I am going to try installing an OEM V8 exhaust with the valves open and see how it sounds. If so, this custom setup will be for sale. It's essentially a bolt on muffler delete with Sport resonators. Fits the V8 model or will fit the V6 with OEM V8 diffuser.
