I thought that STX allowed body modifications within certain specifications. I guess that is not one of the specifications.

Depends.....do you just want to compete at the local level and figure out if autoX is something you want to do for several years, or do you want to shoot for being competitive at the National level? If you're going after the later, the SVX is not the car to do it in - at least not in STX. Give Ben/Dave and myself another year or two to sort our rides out to see if the SVX can be competitive in ESP and FP, in the meantime, just pick a class (GS, ESP, SM, STX) and get plenty of seat time. -Bill

Also, you think that 245/45/16 are going to eat the fenderwells on the RX-7 rims (there will be a Koni/GC set up in the mix as well).

No! I ran this combination for almost 2 years with no issues (at least not tire/rim related ). Go for it! -Bill
