I got my tires/wheels from LMR on Tuesday - 295/55/15 on 15x10 for the rear, and 17x4.5 inch wheels with 28-inch tires on the front.
Installing the fronts were no problem, but the rears were annoying...
In order to put 15's on the rear, you need to install sway bar relocation plates. This was problematic because:
0) I have a Cortex watts link.
1) I have an Eibach adjustable sway bar.
The relocation plates from LMR are held onto the sway bar mounting location with a carriage bolt. This resulted in me having to grind some material out of the Eibach brackets to clear the carriage bolt AND off the bolt itself in order for the brackets to sit flush on the plate.
Once that was done, I went to attach the sway bar brackets, and discovered that the new sway bar position would prevent me from attaching the sway bar to the bracket because a) the bracket bolt was now 1/2 inch too long, and even if it wasn't, the nut for that bolt would not clear the bolt head for the LCA. End result - I had to remove the sway bar completely. (I'm currently in negotiation for a cash+OEM bar trade for my Eibach, but this is highly annoying, to say the least).
To add insult to injury, the threaded holes in the wheels for the wheel caps are fouled with paint, so I have to chase the with a tap before I can put the caps on. Of course, I don't know what the thread pitch is for the wheel cap bolts, so I have to stop on the way home today at the local fastener shop so I can buy a tap to clean up the threads.
On the bright side, the 28-inch tires in the front might make it easier for me to get the car on my car trailer.
This evening's task is dependent on whether or not I get the carb air bleed kits I ordered from summit. If those come, it'll be another day (or two, or three) tuning the carburetors. I also have to replace the OEM fox body gas pedal with a Lokar unit (also should be here today or tomorrow).
Finally, I need to cut a hole in the hood.
