VERY NICE! Thanks for your advice!! I ordered the same tires m/t 345 35 18 & got the same wheels from "House of Wheels".
Those tires really fill the wheel wells! M A S S I V E!! The traction must be awesome!!! I've been using the stock 19" rims with Toyo R888's 305-30-19 & they look really small. Plus they are noisy on the road.
When you hit big bumps, do the tires hit the rear 1/4 panels?

Your car looks great, but I'm still scratching my head trying to figure out what the pictures have to do with forced induction?

I do not hit big bumps.. less than 100miles on it.. no rubber on the inside fender rubbed on it so far though.. I live in DFW.. pretty flat stuff where I live..

When you did the fenders did the bod shop just spray the fenders or spray part of the car with it?
