I picked up some 7 inch wide cookies at Hershey.
I think I'll be able to stuff them under my non-flared car. Am I on crack? Zach |

Are you running 7"s in the front and what size front tires? Did you have to use spacers with the front wheels to keep them from rubbing the innner fenders? What kind of tires are you running? Sorry for all the questions but you've done it already and any info is appreciated. |
