    MF DOOM, what size tires are you running?

    The white vert (I assume that's the one you're talking about) is on 17" wheels and air suspension.

      The comment about the white vert was a joke ;) Its a clean ride. And the fronts are 205/40 and rears are 225/35.

        I had stretched 35 series 19s on my old Lexus and never bent a rim, I don't think that's an issue. They just give you too much guard gap unless you have 17s and are properly slammed

          Holy hell, 35 sidewalls? I would also never go with a lower profile in the rear, even if its wider...


          Go here be happy!

Have a better idea on fitment and all that bullshit. Live and learn. Ill see what i can do about making them look "okay" for now. And burning them wont be a problem :D besides my open diff. anyone want to give me an lsd? I kicked myself in the teeth when i saw esm's 002r in white with gold. Those will be next.
            Because he has bigger diameter wheels and the overall diameter is similar to stock.

              15x9 +10 front 185/55/15 Toyo T1R
              15x10 +10 rear 205/50/15 Dunlop DZ101

              This is my drift setup. I will be going to a +0 front and dialing in some camber for better turn in response.

                      What do you mean? Hes on 17s. im on 17s. The wheels and tires i have on now are almost the same height as my basketweaves. His look waaaaaaaaaay better than mine. Im taking the rear down as far as i can as soon as i find a way to roll my fenders. No one here rents the tool so the baseball bat looks like my only route.. Any one have experience with this?

                        Huh, they look like 16's. But, he has a little more side wall and is obviously lower as others have stated.

                          Love the beefyness on that but you must rub like a B**** in the back though.

                                I don't think you understand how tire sizing works.
