Those of you with widebody installed, how much wider from the original fender? I know most of you cut the original fender, but even a close estimation would work, along with manufacturer. Front and rear if possible. Looking at a few different angles with my cars exterior right now, and comparing notes with a couple other ideas, but need these widebody specs.
Vertex Ridge is surprisingly not as wide as most think. With the pull I have on my stock metal fenders I thought I would need some lower offset wheels but I just pulled out some camber and added a small slip on spacer.
50mm isnt much especially if you have a decent pull and poke already.
I think after seeing the kits and more of the bolt on-flares, Im just going to roll and pull for now. The widebody looks good, but me being on 17's, it wouldnt look right at all, not to mention the front bumper wouldnt last a week here in Houston.
I may even go as far as just cutting and forming the stock fenders to what I need vs. the bolt on flares.
I'm trying to understand the Origin 25mm fender measurement. What is the mm measurement on a stock fender? I apologize if I'm using one of your cars for reference. I'm just trying to get a better understanding on what wheel width and offset looks good with these fenders. I'd like to get a set down the road.
The 25mm is at the center top of the wheel well arch. It is 25mm further out than the stock fender at that point. However there is a lip in the fiberglass there that makes it realistically like 20mm more clearance unless you have that lip down.
I had the 25mm origins and it ended up the pull I put on my OEM metal fenders was bigger than that.
here are my OEM pulled metal fronts. Pulled about 32mm
Gottchya, thanks for the info. I like the vent on the sides of Origin fenders but I'm hoping my wheels don't look "too sunk". I rolled and pulled my front stock fenders just a tad. Would 9.5 +12 look too sunk with Origin fenders?
