Probably a noob question but why is your brake fluid canister wrapped?

Answer to your question.......they don't

To each there own but.......running a 215/35 on a 9.5 with a crap load of camber to make them look like they fit doesn't mean they fit. I do like the wheel and think it would really good on a 7 but if you are going to run something with that offset then maybe you should have the supporting mods to pull it off correctly, as in at least 20mm fenders on both ends.

You're missing the point. They fit just fine how they are. I am just going to push the limits, because in my opinion that's what looks best. Its not a track car, its not a daily driver... So put it to the ground with wide fitting wheels

And a picture with better light (again this is going lower)

That car can fit bigger tires all around, my street car is way more aggressive than that setup.

Your car looks fine and will perform perfectly, don't mess with it.

No reason other than it was a left over filter cover from some Weber filters I bought that I didn't use. Thought it would look cool....I was right.

How many miles on that one?

There's a person at the Napa parts store in Riverside with a vert just like that one, with less than 13,000 miles. Is this the same one?

Yes, that's my wife.

It had about 12,200 when we bought it, and she driven over 1000 mi since.
