    lol. i'll make it easy for you. if you pay the money and buy these wheels, they won't fit. and then you'll have spare boat anchors - and emty pockets.

    but hey, what would i know...

    HAHA.now im gonna be a pain....soooo when you say they wont fit you mean they will hang out too much right? because if its the hanging out that doesnt bother me really,i just came back from bunnings with foam spray :) and started pumping my guards...now they should fit right?

    Ahhh, nice one. Your going to make your own wide fender molds? The expandable foam method works if you have a very keen eye, otherwise it's quite difficult to get right and even on both sides, then there's the making the molds, etc. If you can do it, kudos to you!

    Thanks. first foam then fibreglass on top.iv played with this stuff before so it should be a walk in the park.i just hate getting the foam on my hands :) iv never heard of gloves haha.

    ahh kewl. if you're pumping those guards, the world is your oyster. :) Will be good to see pics of them. I like the look of pumped guards over just about all of the current wide body fender options out there atm. Good luck with it. :)

    just keep in mind your turning circle on the front rims though. You'll have to remove the inner guard for full lock clearance no doubt, but see how you go.

    did the foam spray work well for you? i've tried using it before for fibreglassing but when i started shaping it lots of big air pockets were hiding underneath and it was a major drama to fix.

    iv only had a few air pockets but i fill them again,iv done a side skirt and rear bumper already.just waiting on the wheels so i know how far out to go..but its coming up well.and will be rock solid once i glass on top.only problem is finding good foam spray,i got it all from bunnings and they all work differently,some spray out and some come out in balls,but hay it'l be heaps cheaper then buying a wide body kit and at least its what i want in the end.
