they do stick out some but thats why i put the splash guards on, i am an older guy and when i had muscle cars back in the 80s and what not thats how the tires looked we put the biggest possible, my corvette is h/c headers novi 1500 supercharged all the bolts on and the 335 tires on the back hook up good and the grip is great in the turns function over form the combo works great

all depends on what your needs are, i do alot of track/autocross and 1/4 mile drag racing on occasion, so i prefer all the meat i can get on tires,i got a great deal on this set up so its what i use but its all opinion i love seeing some tires sticking out the rear and back looks freaking mean

This is a hot set-up! If I had known how good they look, I would have gone this way instead of the Nurb's...

Are these chrome or silver variants? I must be a little blind, it's hard to tell.
