Stop in for a cup of coffee

I tried my 15x7's last night. I think they'll work. Pretty tight on the drivers side. It's amazing the differences side to side on these old cars.

What I am looking for is to balance out the rumble. I am just worried the x will hit the d shaft, cannot get a firm reply if it is curved for it.
 
There is not to much up there the way the headers are. And I still need to do a drive shaft loop. Hate to buy it and it does not work.
 
Mike, I understand the frustration with the exhaust. I'll be swapping my exhaust to bigger pipes probably next year. Mine goes from 3", 2.5", 2" out the rear.. Im going to run 2.5" the whole way.

I am on the fence what to do with mine, the h pipe looks so much easier.

I love the H pipe, Mine is flanged also so you can unbolt each side independent of each other

Mike is your car mini tubbed? That is the size tire I want to try to get into my Scamp.. Im just worried about the 10" width.

I can slide my fingers between the tire and spring and the tire and quarter lip on the drivers side. It's almost like the wheel tub on the left side is a inch narrower.
 
yea - add that loop and it starts to get tight!

No mini tub. 15x7 with a 4.25 backspace and a 255-60 tire

Then there is always the old high school trick flex pipe to figure out the fit then find the bends etc in real pipe.
