Also for guys with 28s does that rear wheel well gap look OK to you? I dont think I need to cut anything or roll the fender, but would like opinions.

275-60 MT DRs are about an inch thinner then these and dont grow much.

Oh and I just ordered a new Adj PHB. Hard to tell but rear needs to go over just a touch towards the DS.

that car sounds Sick! thats a healthy sounding cam you have in there man! the tire looks ok. even if you were to roll the fender i dont think it would matter to much. it looks like the tires sticking out of the fender to much.
