Well, I put my new wheels on today! I just finished rolling/pulling my fenders with a bat. I will eventually do it right, but for now, it should help me from rubbing.

I know most of you won't agree with it, and I know I NEED to paint my lowers, but here are the pics. comments are welcome

now for the specs. They are Brock B1s, weight is no issue, but they're not that bad
Front: 17x8.5 ET13 215/45/17 Dunlop SP Sport FM901
Rear: 17x10 ET20 245/40/17 Dunlop SP Sport FM901

I was rubbing pretty good this morning, so I rolled the fenders, and pulled them as much as I could with a baseball bat (just under 10mm I think). I am now saving to have the fenders profesionally done, and to respray them!

now, tell me how much you hate them

if they fit in your wheel wells.

do those even clear OEM brakes?

lunar trucks that they can drive on the moon with ...

I was thinking more like one of those slammed old Buicks with axle extensions

1.8Steve

yeah, just barely though, but they clear (and I have 1 day old mintex redbox pads on)

U going to do damage.
What kind of damage?
The front is eventually going to hit the fender(s) and your fenders are going to "shift" and cause ugly gaps on the doors and with the hood.
The rear...is going to cause much damage, the quarter panel is going to "fold" "crease" up by the "C" pillar....(if u hit)
I'm just posting the worse that can happen. I hope the suspention is stiff as a shopping cart and remember about people sitting in the back seat.
I love the set-up,
looks LARGE and IN CHARGE!!!

Dude you are rolling euro style! I am not really digging the rear tire/wheel combo tho.

You really need a widebody on that or something...

1.8Steve

never a widebody! fenders pulled as about as "widebody" as I'll go
