What brand/size of tires are you running on the rears (and fronts for that matter)?

I did, I can see myself pretty clearly on all of them, I started since I messaged you way back when and used nothing but the stuff I could find from the local hardware stores, thanks for the advice and help.

The rears are pirelli 295 30 19, the tires are huge and begging for more rim. The fronts are 275 30 19.

Thanks for all of the compliments.

So im guessing here, but did you had to add a spacer of some sort since the extra 1.5" was added to the inner fender side...maybe?

Kyle the prices can range from 250 to 300 per rim, Tiremarx, no spacer has been added, everything cleared, but for sense of security I did a little bfh mod.

Thanks for the compliments, any more questions or want to see more pics of the process let me know.

Hey SLIKWS6 about how much room do you have between the tire and your rear lca's? Can you get a close up? Also do you have any pictures of the rim before it was mounted on the tire?


-Also you said that you "polished" the lip, but i think you just meant to say that you "cleaned" it. hahah Our rims have a clearcoat on them buddie
Gracias

Flawls1, I posted a pic that you requested its in the first post, as far as tire to lca distance ill see if I can measure that or get some more pictures for you. As far as the polishing goes I actually stripped the clear coat off and went to town. I didnt like the machined finish because I could see to much of a rainbow effect going on with it, if that makes sense. It also helped match the lips to the tips better.

tappy, 38 mm.

Thanks again for the comments.
