thx guys!

few pics of today. only wanted to see how the tire/rim will look like. too bad my wheel guy wasn't at home to mount the tire onto the rim..

..and I'm still been busy removing all that old undercoating of the body. omg I hate it!

Buddy you have alot work ahead of you, but i bet the work would be rewarding with those wide *ss tires in the back
