Did you have the work done in the Detroit area or did you do it yourself? Also did you use a kit?

Hard to tell from the pic, but I'm sure it looks sweet. Did you get new rims too? If I remember right you use to have OZ wheels with 295s right? I like the CCW rims but they don't come in 12 inch width, so I'm reasearching options to HRE.

Livernois installed the tub kit I got from Lingenfelter, I kept the OZ's and had my wheels widened by a custom weld shop here locally to 12".

What shop did you use? I couldn't find a shop in CA that would widen my forged Z06 wheels due to safety reasons. I can understand since occasionally I do drive high speeds. So now I'm holding off on tubbing because of the expense of new set of wheels.

What shop did you use?
I used weldcraft in Northville MI. I was concerned about the integrity of the welds also, fortunately my business gives me access to a machine that can x-ray the welds to make sure they are structurally sound. I will definitely have this done before I start laying into the throttle

If you do not mind me asking, what was the cost to widen the rims?
Thanks,
