you don't need fender rolling to get it to fit proper...

I've got 18 x 11 et 11 on the rears, no rolling what so ever, just camber adjustment

the pic was taken in austin in the county line bbq parking lot. over by lime creek road and the other twisties that Im pretty sure you know what im talking about. as for copperas cove, its still ghetto over there lol. they did put in a movie theatre where they bring you food and you can buy buckets of beer and take it with you into a movie. the 2 main routes we drive on now is 2484 and Ivy Mtn road by the killeen air port where all the bikers die at and where I flipped my first FD lol......(not trying to thread jack but following the pics or fail rules while posting more pics of the current wheel fitment as a reference points.)

old setup (17x10 +25) all around





current setup (18x9 -0 225/35/18 18x10.5 -26 265/35/18)

+1 for those truck rims. I really wanna meet the guy who thought it was a good investment to get rid of the stock rims for those.
