Fitting an 8 1/2 inch wide rims up front (pics)
Work wheel (Meister S1) 8 1/2 inch wide, 22 offset, wrapped with 225/45/15 Hoosier A3S04 tires
Fenders had to be cut considerably to make em fit..
Well, its a good thing I had a pair of J's Racing flares to cover it up.

Only problem, we had to cut the rear fenders too to make sure that the 7 inch wheel with the wider tires wouldnt rub...so off it goes to the body shop this week for a face lift...

Cut em so they wont rub...size of wheels and how it performs differ from car to car because of suspension set up... 13 inch wheels are 2 inches smaller in diameter than my 15's too...so maybe that's why his didnt rub...
