Re: Big tires?
Is your car backhalved? That's the only way that wheel and tire would ever have a chance of fitting

Re: Big tires?
Takes a lot of energy to rotate tire that tall. Just sayin

Re: Big tires?
Car is not tubbed, nor will it be. I unlike all you purists love the look of tires outside the fenderwell. Power should not be an issue, my other thread addresses that quite well. just wondering if anyone has had luck with 15x15 rims.
