finally got the rims i wanted.... fronts are a 4.5 backspacing and the rears are a 7 inch backspacing... thanks to all the people that helped me researching this.

 

very nice! I have the same in 15" on my current project. what size tire in the back?

 

315/35 toyo proxe tq

 

I like the look what did yoou have to do to get the rears to fit

 

nice....got more pics.....from the rear showing the width of the tires.....

 

I dig it. Looks tough.

 

ooh, those look good. Are they safe for street use though? I thought they were a drag only wheel?

 

Those look so awesome on your car dude!

 

DROOL... I want!

 

looks good! A small part of me likes the early non ground effect cars.

 

Hopefully ill have some better pictures tomorrow

 

those are sexy, bet they are worth every penny! out of my budget and i need those to clear my front brakes

 

Nothing better than a fat rear tire UNDER the car...good job! Those 315/35's look as wide as my 335/30's! Are they 14" at the tread?

 

Those are really sharp! Love the steamrollers out back!! But how in the heck did you get a 11" wide wheel with a 7" backset to fit?!?

I'm assuming bumpstops are a thing of the past, and serious BFH massaging had to occur...or you added mini-tubs! I'd love to put that size on the rear of my car...Very nice! A+!!!

 

OMG. That is a FAT *** TIRE on the back of your car. Like others have asked, how did you get that massive meat to fit in the wheel well? Please elaborate...

 

Bumpstops have been gone for a while... and a 4lb got a lot of use in lol... drove it today and it still blows the tires off at 40....

 

what modifications did you have to do to the rear wheel wells to fit those?

 

Cut the bump stops and massage in what was scrubbing.... other than that its stock... no rolled fender

 

At what areas and how much massaging did you have to do? Is it beat to death or does it look presentable?
Can you post pictures of the wheel well from the underside?

 

wow, i am in love...i need these....

 

Pics please might be ordering 2 new back rims the same width

 

 

nasty that looks awesome man....you're making me look bad, i haven't been getting anything done on mine lately....

 

R u running the stock thirdgen rear end? And no mods to the front?

 

come on over and we'll toss a set on your race car too

 

Wow!

Looks great! those are some serious meats in the rear.

 

looks good . where did you get the rims from ?

 

awesome!

 

Oh, you are SO tempting me.....but there's no way I could fit 315/35's on a 9.5" wide wheel...is there? I think 295/45 is about my limit without changing wheels.

Just for kicks, I'm going to look and see what other BS and widths my wheels come in...mine are pretty much like new as is...

EDIT: Just did a quick check, and looks like they don't carry the right width or BS.

I'd have to order the wheels (if they even make them). Widest I see in my style are what I have on it now...and I see I should run a 10.5"-11.5" wide wheel to fit those tires.....

 

confuzed 1 you can always have yours widened :

Hmmm....that's a good thought. But I'd rather see if there are wider ones available that I could special order from the maker of the wheels before I'd seriously consider that. Just something about welding on cast aluminum wheels I don't care for. Plus I'd be changing the BS of the wheel too, so they'd tuck in like 1nasty86's ride.

Plus, the wheels I have really aren't uber expensive...the tires on them costs more than the wheels themselves! Honestly, I'm just pondering it...it's not like the 275's I have on it are small...lol

 

Looks amazing, I love that filled in look....

 

Moar pix... Looks good!

 

Pics from the rear?

 

is that a stock rear?

 

Sorry I never posted any more pics

 

VERY NICE!

 

Looks great what area did you have to work on to get the 315s to fit? I have 295s now but I am looking at 315s next time

 

Looks awesome! You able to run a bump steer setup with those 8" fronts? Im debating switching my setup bc the bump steer is terrible since I'm lowered around 2-2.5" I want to go with 18's but cant justify the price of 18" RT-S wheels.

Who's bump steer are you running and what problems are you having I'm asking because I have lowered mine 2.5?

 

im guessing you're asking me? I dont have a bumpsteer kit on my car bc the 9" wheel and 275 wheels up front. I borrowed a buddies kit to see if it could fit and it was hitting the rim. Debating going 18's or a narrower front to clear

Jay

 

whats your offset im looking into buying the same set that you have 1nasty86

 

Wheels look great on that car.

I would guess around 25 mm offset for the 17x11 rim, assuming overall width of wheel is 1" wider than advertised.
