I would try plasti-dip if I were you and see how it goes. I believe they have a smoke color and it is easily removable if you dont like it.. just put on enough coats of it! I used it on my wheels...look

This is one of the pictures on Ebay where I bought the GTA. Since I haven't taken any from the back I guest I'm a litter Shy but will get some soon.

Yes, 4th Gen Wing.
Not sure why you think they stick out. BBK does increase by .3". Maybe the pic or maybe your perception.

Re: Post your best rear picture!
I agree with others. those front wells look very full. those are not 50 series tires I bet. they just seem overflowing the front wheel wells. Looks good mind you. really good.. just different. I mean look at my car below... lots of space around the tire and I have 245/50/16

Re: Post your best rear picture!
I was only asking because they are a fairly nice looking tire/tread, which is getting harder and harder to find for a 16" wheel. i'm even considering getting some Ronal Firehawks just so I can have better tire options.
i'm thinking that those are in fact 50's and that the car has been lowered slightly. when I got my Formula 350 the front end sat way high. I had to get a coil cut off the front springs because the wheels could not be aligned properly. mine are 50's but they sorta fill out the front wheel well because the front of the car has been lowered slightly.

Indy Wide Ovals. I have 2" drop spindles and weight jacks up front; coil-overs in rear. Third brake light works fine - just had to extend the wiring a harness by 4" or so.

Re: Post your best rear picture!
Here's my 92 GTA. I just got done washing it after I put on a 4th gen spoiler. The bumper is a newer one, I grabbed that of a red 90 formy. I painted it with that dupilcolor color match rattle can, and yes I did all the sanding and buffing like a body shop would do.

TEDSgrad I got that spoiler from a guy who had it on his 87 GTA so mine pretty much fit right, I do have all four bolts holding it down. I think they look way better with them on.

Re: Post your best rear picture!
These pics are before I lowered my car. I need to get some news pictures of her lowered. She looks way better now with a proper stance!
I'm still saving supplies to get her repainted to look factory; so ignore the ruined clear coat. (previous owners didn't take care of it) I'm still looking for a good SATA clear coat paint-gun, anybody have one?

Re: Post your best rear picture!
New Mufflex exhaust with Magnaflow muffler. Still need to raise it up about an inch or so, but doesn't look too bad. Hopefully finish situating it this weekend.
