i'm going to go for 8" in the front and 9" in the back.
but it seems like the choice of tires in the 15" size is limited. i would like to get 245 in the front and 285 in the back. now it looks like 16" (or bigger) wheels and tires are easier to come by. i did some photoshop to see how it would look like if i made my flares a bit more round to go with the bigger wheels. anyone ever done something like this? i would like to see some real-life pictures. the closest i found so far is Jason's car with her rabbit-flares. later, Andy BEFORE: (IMG:http://www.sirandy.com/pix/914/side4.jpg) AFTER: |

Hey Andy,
I like the "DTM" kinda look of the rabit flares Dunno 'bout making the GT-flares full radius You'd definately need to create fenderlips (big job on steel, easier on f/g) to give them some strength Why not put some 17" wheels on the car? cheers, Jeroen |
