I have a 94 camaro and I need to be able to fit the 315/60 drag radial which probably isn't going to happen without the fenders being stretched and what not. How much does the actual stretching cost (I know it will need body work after as well as paint but I'm curious about the actual cutting and re-welding portion of the job. I have a 12-bolt with a 33 spline spool so I can't go any lower than a 3.73 and I think I'll be mphing high enough that 28's won't get me to where I need to be at 7500 rpm's. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks!

I am on stock wheel tubs and stock length axles too...stock susp...might be SOL. Do you have any pics? Is your car still stock-susp and how much did you narrow the wheel and what backspacing/rim size?

Sorry for so many questions...lol

Sean, he means fully tubbed not mini tubbed. Which typically would require a 4-link. Harlan's is like that at the moment too. No need to stretch the fenders if you tuck the wheel enough.
