    Pushing the limits

    Of rear tire size!

    Running a 26x11.5r17 ( equates to a 275/40r17)Mickey Thompson et street in the rear
    I would say that it's the absolute maximum size tire you can fit with out doing
    Major mods to the body. All I did was add ka motors ultra wide flares.
    Anyways I'll let the pics do the talking.
    The gc coils have yet to settle so it's sitting a bit high.
    I will adjust accordingly when it's ready.

    Let me know what you think!

      Spring rates are 550 and 750 on 6" springs.
      No wheel spin anymore, just hooks and goes!
      No rear shots yet.
      Needs to be detailed.
