    89 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme door armrests sticky and gooey

    Oh, that's right. I forgot about the guide thing on the earlier cars compared to the later ones. My International is a 91 but due to a deer hit early on in it's life, it has a 88-90 door on it. The seat belt sits differently than the passenger door one. When I get the car repainted, I'm going to add the 91 driver door and fender from MemphisMan's 91 parts car. He was generous enough to give them to me.

    i’d go a little smaller of tire because the overall plan is to put airbags on it when the shop gets a spot open, the goal for me is to have the wheels flush with the body the tires slightly in more than the wheels to have a mean ass fitment when the air bags to air out but

    Different material compositions. I used that example since they were in the same car and in similar spots in the car, the storage conditions could be eliminated as a variable. I’ve seen examples of low mileage vehicles that were stored exclusively in climate controlled environments. Some years and models of GM vehicles will experience headliner sag due to the backing breaking down no matter what. Yes, the climate controlled storage may have slowed it down a bit for some….but probably not as much as we’d like to think. Another observation I’ve made are the front shoulder belt guides. 88-90 are of a different style and material than the 91+. The 91+ style always turned a sort of chalky looking white with age, regardless of storage conditions. The 88-90 style may have faded a bit with tons of UV exposure, but almost always remained nice and black.

    18x8 +42 with 5mm spacer = +37. Needed spacers to clear the front calipers, and I didn't want the rear to look more tucked than the front, so I put spacers on the rear just to match. Your tires would stick out 7mm more than mine if you go for 245-wide.
