    here's the deal steve...... and trust me, i know this stuff better than anyone!!!!

    i run a 1 1/2" widened wheel. a 285/40 is on the wheels. i run a 3/8" spacer i had made by scott and dan at BT. No issues. i run the 285/40 for two reason.....1 - car is slammed!!! 2 - only size tire i could find at the time with a matching 245 front.....have to run the 245 front becasue the car is SLAMMED!!! lol

    if you want to run a 305 on a stock ride, you MUST run a 1/2" spacer with some minor mods done to the plastic inner fender well. the areas at the front portion of the fender well is the rubbing. also, on the drivers side, be aware that the fuel line runs right behind this part of the fender well, so be careful!!! on a stock height car, you could go as big as a 315 if you wanted. again, you need 1/2" spacers and minor tweaking to the plastic fender wells!!!

    Do you think a 295 would be an easier fit (still using the spacer?)

    I dont have a certain tire or size in mind yet...just would like the widest thing back there i can get (there really is no way to make this sound good is there? LOL)

    I am staying with 245 up front....not exactly skinny's but better than having a 275 up front hahahaha

    Did you modify your inner fender well?

    Pics? :D hahaha

    Thanks for the info buuuuuuuuddy

    Update (Post #1 has new stuff highlighted in red):

    - Josh at HHP has ordered me my 9 to 1 Custom weighted Pistons for the motor. They should be in in a couple of weeks. Once they come in, Chris (HEMI~C~) is going to build the motor. He has the motor torn down right now and its all ready to go.

    - I am sending the Vortech S Trim blower back to them...and getting a T Trim blower back :). The bigger blower can handle more boost. This is the blower that Lisa had in the mustang when she put down 690rwhp from a 4.6 (this was before she stroked the motor out). I am also getting the same 50mm BOV that HEMI~C~ is running in the Magnum. This saved him a lot of stupid little problems like hoses coming off and so on and on his suggestion, i will put this on as well.

    - I will be going with a fully upgraded Modern Muscle Stage 3 Fuel system. This system has all new braided lines, upgraded fuel rails, larger injectors, and a dual pump setup. I will be able to feed this thing as much fuel as its going to need.

    - To go along with the Meth system, I will be adding a bigger and better Intercooler. I am talking things through with chris now on which one, so when a decision is made, I'll update lol.

    T-trim is a great unit! I have driven S, T and YSI and out of all of them T is the performer with a decent balance of drivability.
