Oh..I don't know..I'm not one to fly in the face of public opinion, but I enjoy watching that film everytime.....especially every frame with the Charger in it...come on! It portrays the Charger as the absolute last word in raw power, speed and coolness, you've got hundreds of cars in that flick and the Charger is No 1...not just my opinion  but the way the story is presented...

Having said that...maybe I'm biased, I don't have the pathological loathing of the Japanese car industry that a lot of you (particularly in the Detroit area) must have......
Also....I DO have a hopped up Mitsubishi FTO with full Veilside body kit and Ricer performance parts under the hood sat on my drive....
;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
Sorry...

ric3r at work says its GTO, lol. Of course his opinion doesn't matter. I do like watching that scene too, even though it's fake

Lookin good DKN1997

Whats on the front, and have you any side view/rear quarter view pics..?
Cheers, Limey


255/45/16's on the front, no rubbing there either, even with car lowered.



This stance looked pretty good! Is it 16x8 or 16x7 up front? And what is your backspacing? Did you do any mods with the front fender stiffener?

Holy 5 year old thread resurrection batman! lol...  they WERE 16x8 all around and no mods to the fender stiffener.  In the meantime, I totalled that car, rebuilt it, and got new wheels lol.

Thanks, so no need for mods on 255s in the front, that sounds good for me. Well, some can totally rebuild a car, while others get less done, like for instance not gotten new wheels yet!! hehe. Sweet looking car you have now, by the way.

I asssume you had 4,5 inch backspacing on those front rims also. Am I correct?
I am asking because I am not sure whether to get 15x7s or 15x8s up front for my 2nd gen with no modifications. And also what backspacing would be best on the 8 inch rims?
Thanks

I have 18 x 9 4.5 bs 275/40/18 in front and 18 x 10 5 bs 295/45/18 in back.  No rubbing but front bs may be different w/ wilwood hubs.

Do you believe that your wilwood hubs gives you more room than the regular heavy duty brake drums up front. It shouldn't really affect the space in the wheelwell though?...
