I have not yet found a saleen wheel in that size, and the 9" one usually has a max of like 30ish offset which isn't enough. I've been wanting to put the SVE drift wheels on mine, but they have the same issue. I'm going to see if I can get the 18x10 size and then have them narrowed 1" and correct the bs/offset all at the same time. If that doesn't work I do like @RacEoHolic330 and get some custom wheels.Thanks guys, I definitely plan to do the FTBR kit and replace all the bushings. I will definitely need those fitting sizes. I'm running 10.5 wide Saleens in the rear right now and would like to retain the same style wheel, but will require a different offset. So I'll drop down to a 9" wide wheel.
@bird_dog0347 did you only drill up through the bottom and not the sides?
I will have to reroute my entire fuel system as my A1000 is mounted on the fuel tank cover right by the rear end. Don't think it will be enough room with the irs installed.

I believe I recall the guy telling me the pressure plate is 1700 pounds.Stick with a dual disc, do you know how much base pressure the clutch has right now?
Got these pictures from Clutch Dynamics today. The twin disc is shipping tomorrow.
I took the car for a spin last night. The clutch was actually chattering a bit and it's never done that before. I wasn't able to replicate any kind of decent load on the drive train because the roads are pretty cold around here now. As soon as the boost stated coming on, I was spinning and hitting redline. I'm going to pull the trans and the clutch to see what everything looks like. Increasing the pressure plate pressure is a good idea. Once I get it apart, I'm going to give clutch dynamics a call and see what he recommends.Went back and dug up the clutch post, you could go a couple ways with it, either more aggressive disc material to replace the organic disc with and the same base pressure, or jack the base pressure up and keep the forgiving disc. Since you are not going to be drag racing or powershifting the car, id say stick with the organic material, and go up on the base pressure. I think what you had shows the guy who you bought the clutch from put some thought into your combination and didnt give you something too aggressive. It's better to creep up on the clutch and let it slip on you than be too aggressive and let the power destroy something else on the driveline. Id drive it and see if it slips when it isnt on the dyno.
Glad you like yours. I haven't talked to anyone that doesn't love it.Love my T56 magnum, wide ratio with 4.10 are perfect for the street! I was nervous about the 4.10's but turns out its an awesome ratio 2.97 1st and .50 6th. Super fun and not too much shifting in town if you know what I mean - and perfect on the highway
American Powertrain will also custom mix and match gears between the narrow 2.66 and wide 2.97 if you desire too. (I stayed with stock wide ratio)

Sorry about the TOB, hopefully its just surface glazing and you're be able to just turn em ...
