Installed the RH fender.



Tires arrived, 335 30 18 and 275 35 18, so we could figure out how much back space we need before ordering the wheels (Forgeline TA3, polished lip race gold centers with the spoke faces machined). We came up with 8" for the rear wheels. Exactly 2.5" more than my 70, which makes sense because the rear end on my 70 was narrowed by 2.5". We went with factory width on this car so the dish on the front and rear wheels would look the same. The fronts are more tricky. Ridetech said 6" so we tried the fronts on my 70, which are 6.125. I thought these would fit well because the rotors on the AERO6 brakes are thicker than what Ridetech normally uses. No interference anywhere, but would look better if they tucked in a bit more. I think 6.5" will be as far as I can go before I start getting rubbing on the subframe on full turn.
