Default bfh mod

Does anybody have a picture of the inner wheel well where I hate to hit. I need to fit my 18 x 10.5 c5 zo6 replicas with 295/35/18 goodyear f1s. These would deffinalty fit with bfh right?

Yes they will def fit with the bfh mod. However, you might wanna think about using a spacer instead. What kind of look are you going for? Do you want a tucked look or do you want the wheel/tire to be more flush with the fender? The 18x10.5 will be very tucked, even with a 295 on there. If you want a tucked look, the bfh mod is fine. Otherwise you will need a 20-25mm spacer for the wheel/tire to look flush with the fender.

Try a 1/2" spacer first before you BFH the wheel well, with the 10.5's with 295's you should fit, and clear the bump stop as well. you will need to get longer wheel studs to be safe with the 1/2" spacer.

Does anybody have a pic of the inner wheel well where I have to hammer. I remeber seeing a pic of it a while ago. Wen I get the tires put on I'll see if it fits if not take out the hammer lol. I want the tire flush with the fender. I don't want it sticking out at all.

You'll see where you need to bfh, its at the 9'o clock position behind the tire. I can guarantee you the tire wont even be close to flush with the fender without a spacer, in which case you wont need to bfh.
