    How did you determine you needed 2 inches?

    • @HoustonKilby
      @HoustonKilby  Před rokem

      Saw that we needed a 1” of space on front side and rear side of tire

      Problems going to be that slicks oblong towards the front at launch then grow as the rpms go up.

      @@randywiddis heck ya man that would look wicked!! Only issue I had with my build once you get to that big of a tire is the inner fenders the way my 66 is made. The body gets in the way of getting the inner fenders up high enough the get the ride height low. Meaning behind the rear glass the flat area in the body gets in the way. It gives the car a cool stance but it just jacks the rear up higher then the front.

    if the rear end was cut the right length you would not have this problem

    • @HoustonKilby
      @HoustonKilby  Před 5 lety +2

      Well with the tire size that's the problem. We build the narrowest rear end that we could and still have good four link width on the brackets. If it was a small tire no issue but I needed to make sure I could fit the largest tire if needed. Plus the shape of the wheel opening causes a problem on these cars if you use a big tire.

      Not true. The wheel/tire combo would look stupid oversized in the stock wheel well. Great inexperienced and obnoxious input, brah.
