Yeah, fenders are cut. Not sure about ride height but it's fairly low with no gap.

Thanks for the heads up. There is a set of wheels that I am interested but the rears are 18x11 +18 and I want to put a 285/35/18 Michelin Pilot Super Sport. My fenders are currently cut as well, do you think I would be able to make it fit?

18x11 +18 is going to be tough, especially with 285's. Mine is at +25 with about 1.5 degree's of negative camber. If you can do about 2 degree's with cut fenders, you should be fine at a low height and not much rubbing.

I'm actually having my friend's shop do my Vanos bolts. He has the timing tool is also doing my rear subframe reinforcement. Don't really have the space or the tools to do those two projects. Or the energy. lol

For the rear subframe, I'm installing the Mason rear strut/subframe bar which should alleviate the stress and not require the weld in plates.

What rear seat delete?

Hmm, good to know. I'm running -1.9º at about 13" ride height from center of hub to fender. I'm hoping I can make them fit if I decide to go with them.
