Greetings Chas!
The wheel opening lip modification is on my list of next steps if the AirLifts don't achieve the desired results. My qualm with this modification is that it would also require modifying the wheel opening molding as well - - a part that would be nearly impossible to replace - - or removing the moldings from both rear wheel openings - - I think that if this is the approach, I will likely have the moldings removed and store them as I don't think that they would be missed by most.

What do these custom wheels you have located look like? You might need to get a set of Vogue Tyres to go with them but watch out, your Eldo might end up looking like a pimp-mobile.

That was my first thought when the whole issue of aftermarket wheels came up. The wheels are either five or seven spoke with a very highly polished finish - - and the tires as they stand now are 1" whitewalls. Tomorrow it is off to the tire dealer for a final analysis before making the final decision to forge ahead.
The technician who has been working with me is a former student so he has been enjoying a few chuckles over my "hot rodding project" as they are calling it in the shop.
