Buy My 13's - they fit with no chopping (just stocky flares and Hi-Los)

The lower your car is, the more metal you need to remove.

The wider the wheel is, the more metal you need to remove.

The greater the offset, the more metal you need to remove.


The basic rule is: remove 1 inch of steel from the front half of the front wheel arch and blend it into the original arch just behind the top of the arch. At the front, the cut will almost meet with the bumper bar mounting flange.
