    I don't know much about the topic, but don't most guys use only the front wheels all the way around?

    I've only heard of the rears being cut and narrowed. The fronts are so skinny, seems like a banana move.

    What are the specs on the 360 wheels, F/R width and offset? How about on the 308 wheels for comparison?

    If it's been generally accepted that 360 rear wheels would not fit on the back of a 308, what were the interference points? (eg wheel lip, wheel well liner, suspension arm, coil spring, etc). What changes are required to fit an unaltered 360 rear wheel on a 308?

    I made some upper shock mount relocation brackets and ran QA1's. Had to move other items around like the oil cooler.

    Thanks! Those look good. The shock mount relocation brackets are probably a bit beyond the home DIY category of work, but it's good to know it is possible.
