hahahahahaha

This is going to take some work to make these bad boys fit. And I already have -2 camber front and -1 rear. Damn, oh well hahaha, good thing I'm not crybaby. This is why we have something called fender roller/puller. Tires are 225/45/17, mild stretch:



edit: by the way, I'm not rolling around on those things, I just wanted to see how much work I was going to have to do to make them fit. Looks like about what I had bargained for, sigh. Still rolling around on S14 SE's until I get the puller.

screw that, chrome fender arches

No. Once I roll and pull fenders plus add another degree of camber all around to the mix (-3 front, -2 rear), it'll be drifter flush, not weaksauce 0 camber flush.

it'll look tight when it's done. Probably going to need sideskirts though. meh.

you can pull that out no trouble. i bet you could even make the front tuck with some more camber and roll the fender, maybe a narrower tire

I ALREADY said it, NO FLARES.

You DO NOT need flares to fit those wheels, at all. Unless you want weaksauce 0 camber flush, then you shouldn't be buying that size wheel anyways.

It looks liek the back wheels are actually leaning out instead of in on the rear wheels--i may just be looking at it wrong though---thats looks ghey.

No, actually, I really like flares.

But when you go flares, you need EXTREME EXTREME. I'm talking like 17x10 +10 up front, 17x11 +15 rear.

Extreme. And Ridiculous. And Expensive.

Also... when you pay for expensive flares and installing them and painting them, then you hit something (even lightly) on your front end, the fenders will crumple and there go your flares.

I hit a tirewall at about 20 on the driver side of my front bumper. Both of my fenders crumpled slightly at the top of the wheelwells.

So because of that, I don't want to use flares. Flares are fine on a pros car, but not on a daily driven amateur car.
