Not too terribly important, but I was wondering what those of you who have have flares' cars look like from behind and how well your wheels/tires fit. I have flares and 7 inch cookies with 225/50s and they appear to sit way out, but still don't fill the space right (to me at least) and they're spaced out 1/4 inch.
I'd like to see what y'all got goin on over yonder! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) (I had to edit the post to say I had flares 'cause I'm a doofus and forgot to mention it) |

Wow these are all only confirming what I'zza been suspectin' - that I need 8s or 9sin the back!
Crap. Hey RS that's the look I want someday - same wheels. What offsets? Hey Root any shots after the spacers? The 8inch Fuchs have a nice stance as well. I wish I could find a set of either of those, even crappy that I could clean up. I have to sell my existing set (polished cookies, 7's) first though, and start looking after taxes come in. I can get a set of 4 BBS 8s with gold webbing still in boxes for 400 bucks, or a set of 4 Fuchs, still in boxes too for the same price, only the fronts are 6s and the backs are 7s, IIRC..... I would've jumped on the Fuchs, but I want them to be wider to fill the flares. Didn't like the BBs's - too 'old school' I guess. Sigh. |
