    Cool PICS!!! FINALLY INSTALLED

    Okay, I have finally got them on for good. got new tires for the front, 225/40/18 Conti Sport Contact 3's, and 265/35/18 Conti Sport Contacts.
    very minimal rubbing on the left front when a full lock. thet fit very well for such a high offset. look great too.. enjoy the pics.

    mine is the other way around, rubbing on the right hand side & clear most of the time on the left. prob is because it's RHD, there is more weight on the right side.

    umm.. not too sure. its not the full 265mm, but my tire is slightly stretched on the rim.. 9.5" rim with a 265 tire. so I bet its almost the entire 265mm.

    you should of gotten lower profile tires. Probably 225/35/18 fronts would make a huge difference.... But it looks great.. keep it up

    I think his tire choice is fine...

    the fronts would have looked too skinny compared to the rears.
