PanSpeed fenders- how much wider tires?
 
I saw that Corksport sells the PanSpeed front fenders. If one can squeeze a 285/30/18 up front on stock fenders...... how much wider can one go with the PanSpeeds?

Would 315/18's or 335/18's be possible?

I know that 335/18's with Petit rear flares are possible.

Thanks,

There would be absolutely no point to going wider unless it's for a show car. I know a few people that run 285/30 up front at the track and they think that it might just be too much tire -- the tires don't heat up fast enough, etc.

Also, you begin to run into sidewall height issues that will not be fixed by going with wider fenders.

I would imagine that 295/30 or 305/30 (if they make that size) would be the limit up front.
