I have done a search for a thread on stretching rear 1/4 panels but no luck. Will someone post a thread on "how to" with pics? I am putting 31x13 Goodyears on my 2002 B4C camaro race only car. I thought that they "might" fit within the body lines with the proper back set, narrowed rear, and they will. The only problem is I can't even get the wheel/tire on to the wheel studs because they hit the front and rear of the wheel well opening no matter what I do. The car is leveled out on screw jacks and raising or lowering the rear axle housing doesn't help. I`ve got to stretch em! and it's my first time doin it! Cut and Tig time, I just need a little help with the visual kind of aid.

My pictures...
Here's a few from when I did mine (4" stretch):

What it looks like with the cut out portion back in it's original location (14x32 slick):

Here it is with the halves in their new position:

Both halves spot welded in:
