1ST, I really can't see how the tires look in the rear, I am not sure how I would fit a 255 in my wheel well now, lol. I recently had an air mishap and fender met tires unfortunately not too much damage just ate a little of the two rears...

That sucks. Glad it's only minor. Your running a 245/35 in the rear right? Did you shave your fenders? Mine are shaved and pulled about 6-8 mm. It just clears. A 245/35 would have been an issues for me.

Yes, shaved them but still touches right over the rim unfortunately. It's all good again though, I'll post some pics later from a show I went to yesterday (Sunday)...

Okay, so headed out to ATL today to meet up with the Infamous Society crew to go to SouthrnFresh 4, had a blast. Rained a little but that didn't stop the "real" car guys from BS'ing about our cars....here are some of the pics I took, once the pros post theirs I'll post them as I find them.

Eurou. 225/35 on 9.5 and 245/35 on 10.5, going to downsize the rear to 235/35.

front is rolled, rear is pulled.

How hard was it to pull the rear fenders and did you do it yourself?

What brand of tires do you use? I need to go with a smaller rear tire as well.

I hear pulling the rears is not good because of the "dual wall" our cars have in the rear. That's what I was told when I said I wanted mine pulled anyways...

That's what I heard too. I was wondering how it could be done without doing serious body work.
