kyoytey1693 - Thanks for the compliment on the red stripe. It gets a lot of really mixed reviews, but I really like it.
The rims are the correct offset, so no spacers are needed.

victor111262 - What offset do you have on the rims? I did some moderate hamming and rolled the fenders just fo safety. But my tires do really rub anywhere. I kept the bumpstops in as well, I think to many people dont really look inside where the tire is hitting at, I can run my hand between the tire and wheel wellwith my suspension almost fully compressed.

man, that looks really good. The minor bulge from the tire reminds me old school muscle cars and IMO looks more aggressive. Good looking car man

Rushin - I have 1 tire i can sell you. Last week I hit something in the road I guess and had a massive tire blowout. So I spent this past weekend going around to track down another set of 335's... But I wont discuss how much I paid for these.

A little too bulged out for me too, they definately stick out past the rim (making part of the tread useless).

Cosmetically, wider tires always look good IMO. You got a steal of a price so it's all good and a no brainer why you got them, but you'll **** your pants if you go to buy them new

They look perfect to me.....don't understand all this "bulge" talk that people see. When a tire is flat with the rim...it looks friggin stupid.

So....I too want to put 335's on my rears. On 18x10.5's....or I will widen them to 11.5" only..........is all you did was hammer the inner wells so they don't rub....nothing else on the inner wells? Stock positioned LCA and bracket?

In that second picture...is the LCA bracket like 1 inch from the tire....or does it just look like that?

For rear suspension mods I have, adj. poly/rod end LCA's, LCA relocation brackets, poly/rod end panhard bar, adjustable spring perches. My car has 1 3/4" lowering spring, but with the adjustable perches I have only lowered the car 1/2". Wheels are centered front to rear and side to side.

I must have missed a memo. What are adjustable spring perches? I have never seen or heard of them. What do they look like? Where do you get them? How much adjustment do they offer?

kyoytey1693 - LOL. Adjustable spring perches are a costum touch I did. Where your upper spring is held in the car there is an adjustable plate the screw in/out 1.5" or 2" (I cant remember). I had to drill out the upper spring locator and weld the adjust plate in and there is another piece that threads in and out of the plate and holds the spring from moving around. Its actually from a racecar shop I used when I worked on a pit crew.
