Good God those are big. Suprised they fit good without cutting the fenders.

Edit: What is the width of those also? 26x15x__?

what mods did you have to do to make them fit with so much clearance. I am running 25" w/ coil overs all the way up and they barely clear. Looks good!

Yeah really, those should expand and fill up the fender pretty good. Don't want to pull a spin at the big end

cool, good luck with them i remember you bitching about the 24.5 tire on a 15 inch rim before. those shoudl work very well. my buddy just made the same switch on his 10 sec jetta. he hasnt tested his yet though, but i'm sure they hook way better than the 24.5's!!

thank guys!it is going to take a few mods to be able to turn.the itr lip and the lip on the bumper will have to be trimmed just a bit and the inner fender removed.the springs are up 1" from where i usually have them, but not all the way up.it is going to have to have a bit more neg camber as well.i am also going to put in some extra bump stops to prevent the fenders coming down on them.i jumped up and down on the core support and could not get the fenders to hit the tires(and i weigh 300lbs!)
here's another pic for the heck of it(kinda blurry though)

If you spin on these, I don't know what to say. Getting ready for King of the Track import? I don't really think you have any competition as far as that goes. Will you be trying them out this weekend at Steele?

Come to Steele, please!!!!!!!!!!! I want to see you run on those bad boys. Plus, if Gary comes back with the Supra, you could give him a run for his money in the Quick 8 slick class since he seems to clean house every weekend. Going to Walker this week?
