Yall might think Im stupid for this, but on the wide body kits like the Quwhees wouldnt the stock tire just be sunken in? What do you do to make it be even with the end of the kit? Do you get a longer axle or just wider tires? Im shures its wider tires huh. What kind of tires are those? Anyone seen a quwhees wide body kit cheaper than $2000?

You gotta get big rims. Like 18 or 19. Maybe even 20 depending on how you mount the flares. Wider rims, wider tires, and a lot of fiberglass that isn't good for driving daily. Fiberglass will not stick to the urethane stock bumpers. Get a regular kit, and a great paint job, or a kit and some go fast mods for the rest of that 2k. You got 2k to spend on a kit, I would say get a full kit for 500 or so, and spend the rest towards a turbo kit. Or get the widebody if you really want it that bad. I just heard it doesn't bond well to the urethane bumpers.

Yup, that is very true. I remember that girl with the QUWHEES wide body kit said her car was completely coming apart, like the kit was falling off. Fiberglass pieces are not meant to be bonded to urethane stock bumpers. The right way would be to drill holes or use rivets to attach them, but that would be really ugly.

u could get a talon fiberglass front and maybe it would work. Then get a rear that is close to stock, but then you have bought 2 kits and there's no point.
