I think the first issue youll run into is finding the springs lol. Unless you already have them?
 
Flush and the LS do not mix.

I know you want to be all VIP with your car but unless you have major cash to spend you should find an easier to work with platform. Have you looked at your rear fenders yet?
 
I could have fully answered your question but I felt like not spoon feeding people who cannot properly search. Don't make new threads about information which has been talked about a thousand times over.

Depending on what you wish to accomplish you would have to test fit a wheel/suspension ride height combo to see if you needed to stretch the tires and how much.

Since you are even asking about offset and tire size combos I assume you don't even have a clue what you are doing. Nor have you even realized the fact that you can't simply "roll" or even "pull" the rear fenders. The door jam is part of the rear fenders making that not possible
 
you want a useful answer then go search around, wheel and spring combes have been covered thousands of times on this site, or even mor useful get out a ruler and go measure to see what the distance from the hub to the fender edge is.

Also if you want real flush you will have to flair the fenders, and part of the door.

Do a little research on suspension geomerty so you know where your wheel and tire will end up when the shocks are compressed, thats where you may run into problems on this car not just rolling the fenders
 
ah nothing like a one of them there webernet fighty majigs,

dude you need to chill out don't get mad because he gave you an answer you didnt want to see. He is right though with some of the structure of the car, the "vip" or "flush" is going to be very difficult...

But for your sake and ours just try to do some research about fitment and what is available as far as parts,

I'm not trying to piss in your cheerios but with out extensive body and suspension modification you are not going to get the look you want with this platform. Thats all he was trying to tell you but like the teenager you say you aren't you got pissed and went all bitchy....

yea I did, if I wanted an easier car to go with I would have but thanks for the post that adds no value what so ever.... I'm definitely not worried about doing some rolling or radius work

Its amazing people post just to post. If you can answer the question why post...

Instead of feeling like you are entitled to being spoon fed and not even going outside to look at your car you can tell you can't roll your rear fenders. bullschmidt is as close to flush as anyone here.

can you read...

Go back a few post and see that I know the rear cant be rolled, I know its going to need to have extensive body work. The front can be...so this post was pointless.

I already know i'm going to need extensive body work, and i'm ready for that, in order for me to be able to see what needs to be done I need first find a suitable rim and tire combo.

What I am also looking at is if a conversion to 5x4.5 would be better to do because of the ability to find a more variety of rims. Its amazing how hard it is to get opinions on this forum.

look real close at the back inner fender, take out the fender well plastic to see how much your going to have to do, if you have o modify the upper corner of the fender you will have to re-locate the door striker and maybe even do some serious work to the door itself.

1st it was attempted I don't know how far he got, look around for the thread, should be on the first 10 or pages, don't remember the name of the thread

2nd your on the internet, so you just have to take with a grain of salt or 7


you will want to use a smaller wheel 18" to with the stretched tire to help avoid rubbing and help the flush appearance.

go visit stanceworks.com and their forum, you will find plenty of info on wheel and tire questions, you can only stretch so much

Listen bitch, I'm not sure where you think you can just act like an a*shole to anyone that doesn't give you the answer you want? So since you know Soooooooooooo much and are Soooooooooooo mechanically inclined here is what you should do.

(EDIT). We dont need any tutorials for self sodomization here either.




Your on your own now dickhead, you've worn out the welcome mat and no one here is going to be so inclined to help you.

ya just thought it might be a place to start or look into
 
I love bullschmidt's car ----- just putting that out there. One of the black LS's on here that further makes me want to paint mine black, but saying goodbye to silver birch would be very difficult.
