I am going with a 305/35/18 tires for the rear, and taking the 5/16" spacers off completely. I will shoot some new pics this weekend when I mount the Toyo's..... anyone want to buy Michelins cheap with 3 miles on them? lol, peace, victor

It's a shame you sold the ATI damper. I was waiting for an email address to send my payment to. Then I get one that you sold it. Now I paid retail

I gave the damper to my cousin in trade for a dirt bike for my son. It was a white lie on my part, and I am sorry. My son really wanted the dirt bike and it seamed like the right thing to do. Good luck with your car, and it was nice talking to you, peace, Victor

That's all I had to hear. Thanks. Hope your son enjoys the bike. Make sure he wears a helmet 
Back to the topic. I love those wide wheels. I don't think they're too much at all

Thanks everybody for your feedback. I am removing the 5/16" spacers today, centering the rear with the aphr, and then will evaluate the setup. If they are still out a bit to much, as they are now for my taste also, I will put on the 305/35/18's roadrace Toyo's I got. This is a 1" narrower tire. Peace all, Victor

Why didnt you use a 345/30 or 335/30 tire that a little closer to stock size. I think the height of that tire distracts from its width. Also I'd think a 305 tire is way to small for a 13in wide rim.

Well, I removed the spacer completely, after centering the rear, they fit fine, dead even with the fender lip. Next up is to roll the inner fender lip a bit. I still cant believe these things fit. Anyone need Toyo Proxy's for $150?? I will stick with the Michelins out back.

The Wheels look GREAT. I would like to know what you did to make them fit and the backspacing on on the rims. I'm assuming you're running an 18 by 9.5 front with a 275?
