Buddy with a Ls1 in a 46 told me the same.

You might have to widebody to get a big enough tyre under the guard to get you better traction I drove it like an animal to spin brru. I do have some baby 215s old Pirellis on the Rk003s 18×8.5 8.5 kgs rims at rear. Going to opt for 255 40, something cheaper cos smoking& raw instant power was part of the essence of the build. Would like to go 17×10/11 after cam with no alterations of the guard. Like the stock look. 1 major stuff up was hitting that guard🙄i could of made it fit but I was rushing. I hate it!! And will fix it soon. I wont alter the stock look unless i really have to homs. I will take you for a spin soon. Shes Insane brru....as the last guy i took for a drive said more than 8- 10 times. 😂 Edited February 22, 2021 by LsBeema 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
