QUOTE (andys @ Dec 4 2005, 08:31 PM)
I have the same wheels which I intend to run on my recently started f'glass flared car. I did a trial fit of the rears (255-40-17) and find I'll have to trim the inside lip. Without hijacking this thread, can someone with this combination tell me how far they timmed the lip (or how much lip is remaining)?

Thanks,
Andys

I have steel flares on the RS and I had the lip completely folded. However, I have plenty of room and probably didn't need to do this, but at the time, I wasn't sure and didn't want to take a chance.
