Hey my del sols tires rub when i hit a big bump on the highway going about 80 mph... I have the Tein Basic Damper and i raised it up... I dont have any wheel tuck anymore so it doesnt really hit anymore but I wanted to be able to tuck the wheels a little to give it that aggressive look... Any suggestions on what I could do to the wheel wells... Do they need to be cut out and rewelded or something?

Honestly, tucked wheels are great for pictures, but serve no other purpose especially for driving. Just raise it up when you drive, problem solved.

offset?

one other question that just kinda popped up at me was my radiator... im going from a D16Z6 to the B18C1 swap... can i just keep the D16 radiator in my del sol or do i need to replace that 2? what should i replace it with? i am also keeping the AC... so...

it doesnt rub anymore cause it is raised out of the wheel well it still looks like its lowered just not tucked maybe it better than way anyway...

1) fold the fender on the inside and what also helps is if you deflate your tires a bit.

2) the radiator from the d16z6 will work just fine with the swap.

1) You bought basic suspension parts.
2) 17's are too big for your car.
3) Looks will not make you faster.

get some 16s on there or 15's...17s on a sol is too big...even on a civic 16s are big enough...
