I've been busy... (extensive Aveo customization project)

WOW!!!! Amazing, absolutely amazing! Your def taking the aveo to a whole new level!

you are taking it to a new level of engineering and looks.

1) I see the cut out for the new wheel and the diameter of the wide kit. How are you going to make sure it does not interfere with the door?
2) Once you get the new outside diameter tire how are you going to limit turn angle from rubbing on the inside of the car?

Thanks everyone, its been fun so far. Lets hope it stays fun..

1. The cut out is currently a rough cut (tracing the inside lip of the flare). It will be cut more. There will be no fender in front of the door on the lower 1/2 where the flare rests. The flare will be mounted and move with the door in that section. I am sectioning the flares with the panels (where i can) so they appear like factory, Bolt together parts.

2. The diameter is a big issue, but the rims will stick out further so the back of the tire will be about the same plane as stock. I will clearance everything. So far I have to move the main harness (from wheel well too), fuse box, and ecu. These adjustments will be unnoticeable once done unless you know where they should be, basically up and over, and make the metal move.. Those are all future posts.

Today was put the rear together, to test fit the flare, and mark for rough cuts..

Just stopping here would make sense, it looks good now..




First set of cuts marked of many to come:
