Rears are +12. I only have shaved fenders in the rears, with a pull or even a flare, you can pull off low single digits or even negative offsets if you wanted too.

Thanks, not even close to your build yet especially with the Vortech! I think after I finish the exterior, I will have to keep an eye out for one.

You have to have the hangars cut on the muffler and re-welded but yes, you can. Marcus Cooke did that to his. I will probably get it done at some point

Thanks Marcus, I was going to hit you up and ask how much was removed too! Your sedan is a true inspiration.

And I just noticed this yesterday, my driver and passenger seats do not match. Anyone have an idea what seats these are? Coupe? 05-06 Sedan?
