I like the stance but don't like them sticking out past the quarters.

that's what i was thinking too. but as posted, i picked up a set of 275/60's yesterday and that's what i'll be using. that will put them right inside the fender lip from what i've seen/read. i'll post pics once they're swapped out.

i've already pulled the rearend this morning and i'm getting ready to put in the new one and all the new suspension so we'll see how far i get if i stay motivated and don't have many issues.

hmm im a little late but looks like my new toy (see bottom of post) what size tires? i just picked up sum new mickey thompson 275/50/15's and mounted them so i need to get a new pic, all you need is a 6pt that you can see through the front window and itll be to die for

edit: and after reading your sig, similar engine set up as well, what rear suspension are you using?

the ones in the pics are the MT 325/50/15's, 28". i just picked up a set of 275/60/15's so i'll be good to go. just put in a new 8.8 with a bunch of overkill items in it, but i got it for a steal. it's got 35 spline axles, welded tubes, c'clip elims, girdle, spool, and i just put 4.56's in it. i put it in today along with the Steeda Hardcore line of dbl adj uppers, aluminum lowers (non-adj), strange shocks, and dual airbags (don't want an anti-roll bar right now). i'll post some pics when i get the new tires on it and back on the ground. still need to bolt in the one side of the lca's but needed another set of hands which will be around tomorrow.

so that's got an ls1 in it? cool. mind if i ask what you paid for it? trans? susp? etc? looks like the front & rearend need to come down about 2" each? otherwise it looks nice, but i'm not a big fan of hatch's, just me.

ok, these tires look a LOT smaller vs the 325's, but they tuck in really well. they're still 28" tall M/T DR's, but they're 275/60/15's.

Better???
