i just removed my tire and used a big hammer and very lightly started tapping the lip first up and then from the inside out over the entire lenght. i can't stress this enough very gently tap it keep working the whole lip back and forth

I'm ganna try to put the tires on unrolled, if they rub I'm ganna tow it to the house and roll the fenders.

flattusmaximus78 · August 21st, 2008, 02:23 PM

So do these control arms look stock to anyone?

and heres my new micky's

When I took my rear rims off apparentyl it had rubbed on the quad shocks with normal street tires, but just to clean dirt off not a constant rubbing. I'm ganna flip the quad shock around. With that being said the street tires are 275/40/17 and the mickys are 275/45/17. Doesn't looks like my fender is ganna be a problem tho.

those are NOT stock control arms

ryans88gt · August 21st, 2008, 03:46 PM

should've got the 275 40 17s... It'll be a tough fit, but you can probably get them in there.

93hatch · August 21st, 2008, 03:46 PM

how much were your mickeys?

86_Notch · August 21st, 2008, 05:04 PM

since you have aftermarket control arms, you can toss the quad shocks in the trash , that'll give you some more room

flattusmaximus78 · August 21st, 2008, 05:07 PM

Well ryan my dad bought them for his 06 gt. Their mounted on stock gt rims right now so it wasn't my choice cause trust me I would of made the same choice u suggested.

And 93 hatch they were free lol. 200 a peice brand new. Which they pretty much are. And if I flip the quad and it rubs their going out of site.

95StangMX · August 21st, 2008, 05:35 PM

anyone have pics of a rolled fender I dont know what part you are talking about rolling in....

teal89 · August 22nd, 2008, 03:12 PM

I would just flare the fenders. It will give em a much wider look plus you can put a slightly bigger tire in

4doorfoxy · August 22nd, 2008, 03:17 PM

I wanna see pics once you get it done!

flattusmaximus78 · August 22nd, 2008, 03:17 PM

I can't get the quad shocks off. Or loosened for that matter. Their WAY to tight. So idk what to do.

ryans88gt · August 22nd, 2008, 03:21 PM

you need an impact, that is the only way. Impact and a propane torch.

I just did this myself and it still took me a hour or two per side, heating, cooling, PB blaster and heating, and then impact.

I was just in another thread talking about this... Get some PB Spray, it's the best shit you'll ever use and it will help break down the shit that seizing your bolts.
