Re: FRONT SKINNYS- POLL
INTMD8 I have on the back 275/50/15 nittos and from the front of the car looking straight down the side they DO NOT stick out. If you look from the top of the wheel well in the middle the axle it is not sticking out. From the rear they seem to stick out about one inch from stock. 245/50/16 stock on 16 x 8 inch wheels. The nittos are slightly on the round side , but they hook real good, and i only use them when im heading out to the track. only size for 15 inch wheels. I think the 15 x 8 1/2 might stick out a little too much.

15x3.5 Pro Star Skinnies
165R15 Radials, Monarch Metric... Get radials rated for 40-50psi... for a heavy VW bus.
Intmd8, IMO I would get 275-60-15 DR's, otherwise I would not bother. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Rears? Trevor has the 7.5s and they are within the well - hopefully he'll jump in and confirm. I've got 8.5s on my car and they are out about a ½" or less. Look Here
