Ordering new lips and just want to double check the size I heard you measure up to the curve of the lip. So Is this a 3 1/2 lip in the rear.


How it sits now




Rear










Front: I think it is a 2 1/2...what yall think





i was going to go an inch bigger but after trying on a 15mm spacer it would leave me this far out....





So I'm thinking a half inch bigger than the inch....I don't want to do body work also going are pretty soon.
Can i pull of an inch? Could a pull do it....or should i play it safe.

let me know...

 

you could pull off an inch...just a little camber and you're good

 

+1

Just a tad bit of camber and you'll be good.

 

15mm=0.59
25.4mm = 1 inch

12mm =just above a 1/2 inch

The last pic shows the 15mm spacer, so 1/2 inch will be at tad less.

I'm going airrunner and don't want to ruin the lips by rubbing the quarters. Also the front wheels are 9inch wide. An inch would make them 10's.

Thanks for the input, fellas, I'm not as daring as yall LOL

 

wait ur going air?
then definitely an inch!

 

slight camber and your good

 

Thanks fellas...I chickened out and went with the 3 inch up front and the 4 inches in the rear. I really didn't want to pull anything. I'll post pics of the lips when they come in. So I have to play the camber game huu.... O gosh LOL

 

..hmmm, i thought measurement for the lip sizes started off where the rivets are at?

 

Also keep in mind if you're keeping the same tires they'll be stretched a little more on the wider wheels so I would think that'd help a little bit with clearance.
