okay before I get blasted about doing a SEARCH...

I found some pic's of the 275's.

question though, do we have to do any moding to the wheel well area for them to fit?

By the way JungleMan and ZZ4 86 that is exactly what I'm looking for, nice rides

Are you sure you want 275/60s I think most 275's are 275/45. You will end up with the speedo way out with 275/60. And in my opinion it'll look daft....

Si.

mwnova has it, and it looks good IMHO.

I have them, on 2nd gen wheels, so the offset might be a tad off. My car is in many pieces, so I can't get a picture, and apparently I never took one before...?
