Sir, you are correct.

I drove it for a good while tonight, on some real crappy roads with alot of dips and construction, it seems to be perfectly fine.

Im going to pull the wheels tomorrow one last time just for piece of mind.

The last thing i want are my $300 tires getting sliced or being rubbed against.

Thanks for the compliments.

Like i stated earlier.

Dont be scared of the BFH. Its not as bad as it sounds.

I sprayed some Dupli-Color rubberized coating in my fenderwell yesterday and you cant even tell i did the BFH mod.

Thanks for the compliments guys!

They are monsters in person.

Wow those look awesome... makes me REALLY wanna get some ZR1s and 315s ASAP I can get a better idea of size from chukabara's pics or whatever the **** his name is. I bet if you took the FIRST pic you took and got lower to the ground, it'd give a better idea, at least to me. When you BFH, does the fender give easily? Or do you really gotta WAIL on it?

I'll get some more pics soon.

I was too anxious to get the pics that i just started snapping away.

For the most part the fender well gives really easy. Evey once in a while you will hit a hard spot that takes some more force but it still not THAT bad.

After you do BFH, get some rubberized undercoating and spray it on where you beat. You wont even be able to tell you took a hammer to it.

I'm getting these to put on my black zr1s. I'm also getting the eibach prokit. Do you think I'm gonna have some issues? Should I maybe do the Hotchkis 1" drop instead?

You will probably have to roll your fenders.

I didnt have to because im at stock height. Im eventually going to lower the front about 1".

i had nitto 315s on my car and just got my zr1s back from the chromer along with these tires, where all did you have to bfh at? i really dont want to do it, but i dont want to send these puppys back either. there were a few small marks with the nittos so im just thinking of tapping those back in and calling it a day, they just barely touch as it sits. they are amazing looking tires though
