FC3S Murray's never ending build.

[FC3S Murray]

Little Update:

So I ended up getting a sweet deal on some 17''x8 +28, 17''x9 +29 WORK EQUIPS. I liked the VS-XX's BUT the Equips are just to sweet!! I should be getting them by Tuesday.

Now I am in the process of deciding what series of tire I want to get. It is a pickle due to how much fender gap I want with these new shoes.

I am up in the air with either 40 or 45 series tires. 45's will fill my wheel wells perfect with my current Tokico/gf210 set up BUT will probably feel sloppy. 40's will be stiff BUT will leave a slighlty larger gap in my fenders....I am most likely just gonna get coilovers this tax season so this may be all in vain lol.


Meanwhile today I decided I am gonna need to roll my fenders regardless if I ever lower this FC more. Went at it this morning with a heat gun and rubber body mallet................

Passenger side went GREAT with no cracking.




The driverside was a **** and already had a "bite" in the fender lip that caused a small 2mm crack this last summer. I knew the crack was gonna spread and sure as shit it grew about 2''....



Here is the crack after I touched it up(my ocd couldn't let this fly though...)



SOOOOOOOOO then I said screw it and got out some 2000 grit and wet sanded that damn crack, applies some touch up, then some rubbing compound, then a heavy coat of 3M Hand Glaze followed by a little more touch up paint. Turned out GREAT and is barely noticable.




As for tires I am thinking about Nitto NT555's or Falken FK425's. If ANYONE knows of other street Ultra HP tires, please fill me in.

Will post pics of the wheels as soon as they get here.
