Because of this....


Though I run 7.5 castor so I rub at the backside on the gromet for the chassis harness at full lock. 235-40-17 RT615's had miles of clearence on stock fenders.



Alignment:
F = -2.5* camber, .04 toe in, 7.5* castor
R = -2* camber, 0 toe, traction rods shortend to 8" center to center.

Car needs to be raised in the front a tad to level it out.

Once I get my motor set up finished I plan on running 275's in the back for a while. I'll go bigger and better later on past that.

I wrecked my car last november. So since I had to rebuild the entire front end of the car I went ahead and tub'd the fenders out because I've been planning on running big wheels for a long time.

Hey guys, i was wondering if anyone knew if it would be possible to run a 335/35-17 on my 17x9 +22 (with a 15mm spacer if needed) on the rear of my coupe with stock rolled but not pulled fenders? i realize i would probably have to raise it a lil so the fender won't rub, but is it possible?

Thanks homies,
-Eric
