    Has anybody flared the front fenders for more tire clearance like DSE did on their 70 Camaro test car? I like to get some tips on doing it

    What's your tip?

    Back in the day ,road racers use to do it all the time Especially IMSA and SCCA racing. Just find a good body shop and the wheels and tires you want on the car .and have at it.I believe that there is a section on this site called fat fendered Camaros for ideas.
