    Re: 2000GTB BH5

    Get them to hammer everything that the wheels are going to rub on. I had to do a lot of hammering on the inside of the rear fenders to get it to stop rubbing. Also on one side it was rubbing towards the front of the wheel well where that one piece clips in.

    And in the front, make sure it's not hitting with the wheel turned and weight on the car.

    It would suck to have all the body work done just to have to hammer the car more after it's all finished.

    Re: 2000GTB BH5

    they are pretty experienced with this stuff... handful of cars were done at this body shop that has made it to SEMA... to name a few.. my poopra, GTR, S15, bunch of muscle cars and Bulletproof automotive GT-R etc.. I I already know how much to stretch also based on my experience, gotta calculate the the width minus the offsets and suspension travel...

    I went to visit the car today and let me tell you.. Im very happy on the job they have done... Ill pick it up sometime this week..

    Re: 2000GTB BH5

    Well that shouldn't be too hard to fit. The wheels at least won't be. They only stick out 11mm more than mine do and I didn't have to pull anything. Just had to roll the lip and hammer on the inner fender in the rear and strut tower in the front. So you're pull should more than make up for that 11mm.

    What size tire do you think you're going to run. I'm running 225/40r18 and even though I could probably get away with a little wider, the extra height would've probably been more of an issue. I'm only running 8k/8k springs and at the height I'm at, there's no way to go any lower without rubbing a lot more. My front tires are hitting the frame and it's not exactly a place that you can clearance with a hammer.

    But it also depends on how low you're going to go. But if you don't go low enough running that width/offset is going to look retarded.
