(Hope you don't mind the link, EugenioSS)

So I have been looking at Casey Quinn's car for a while now and the idea of 335s all round for the track has been growing on me (on 17 x 12 CCW wheels, just like Casey).

What I am wondering is, does anyone know how he got his rear fenders to be flared like that? Are they custom one-off pieces, or did he just get them flared them by rolling them? That looks like it takes of any rubbing issues that might come up in the rear.

Thanks.

He told me that he flared himself and then had a body shop clean it up, and paint it.

FWIW I just used a big hammer, started pounding and they flared pretty easily. It helps to have the inner fender seperated from the outer. Best bet is to cut a slot in it and then pound it out.

I've not yet run the car, and I don't even have the 12" wheels yet. I did however space the 11" wheels and 315's further out by 1-1/4". Then removed the springs, and dropped the car all the way on the stops. Looks like they'll clear. Flared the rear about 2"

sticking with the 11's up front.
