    Came here thinking it was someone mounting 195s on a 10" wheel.

    I left very, very pleased.

      They stick 3" out from the fender. Not sure which way to go.... Would like to go the rivet on fender flares direction. What do you guys think??

          The rivet on flares might not cover 3 inches sticking out.

            radius dem fenders. I'd like the look of only rear IE flares, but im sure they're only like an inch or so overfender. With all the power your putting down a derp amount of camber would be a shame. If all else fails I say jack up the rear and run mexiflush!

              That's what I was thinking. Ordered the tires today 275/50/15 MT drag radials.

              Here's stock 6" next to widened 10"

                  So are you going to run skinnies up front?

                      Why not make your own metal flares? I know it is more work, but you would have a better fitting arch.

                        Would it have been possible to have it widened in 2 spots? have the front widened say 1.5 and the rear widened 1.5

                        I get that you don't gain as much lip but for added sleeper affect would that have worked?

                            Deweld the center and alter the backspacing. I've done this successfully.
