uh... There something wrong with your wheels. They're the wrong offset. And whatever tireshop actually mounted those tires should be drug out in the streets and shot. Good luck with that setup.

Yeah I thought I did too. We did for a while, we're old school now I suppose LOL. I'm not trying to go THAT wide, I'm sticking with my current sizes, maybe just different wheels.

**** I'M biased towards the FEED kit and I don't even have one. I'm thinking about ditching my Sanai kit, or at least the front bumper for a FEED front bumper. I've always loved it. And the front fenders look so good with it. Just not a fan of the FEED rear fenders, I want something that fits the whole fender, not just a lip.

Dont take it so personal man, but I have to somewhat agree with mike. I dont understand why people run such a large wheel with a tire that will fit on a much smaller wheel? A 255 will fit nicely on an 8.5" wheel and you are running them on a 10.5" wheel? Same as a 295 on a 12.5" wheel, u could run that on a 10.5" wheel and it would be just the same.

I understand wanting that stretched look with a big lip and deep face, but there comes a point where it just looks like the wheels literally do not fit on the car. Not to mention the amount of un-sprung weight that you are adding to that car that is completely not needed.

I really like what you are trying to do with the look of the car, i just think that it is a little bit too much. But, good for u for trying something different.

A pic of my car so u can make fun of it, lol. Needs a lot of enterior work now that it is running, just glad its moving under its own power.

Did you plan on getting those covers painted, or are they red to match the wheels?
