As soon as they are on pics of 335's are up! I'm thinking of getting some clear vinyl for the bumper and qtr. I've had my fair share of experience with wide tires on these cars, all of them have had 315's, either BFG's or Goodyears. Luckily the Fikse's are 12" and don't rub at all with the Goodyear 315's that are on there currently, with some decent BFH and some fender rolling action, I should be good! I can't wait to get them on and the car tuned!

That's what I was reading, but they look bigger than my good years do. I'm going to try to get them mounted on Thursday.

The 315 hoosiers ran wide on my 99, I would imagine the sames true for these. Just make sure you roll the fender lip just in case (even if they 'clear')...that softer sidewall will be prone to gouge easily. Jeremiah did the fenders on the pewter car and did an awesome job BTW Reza, I'll probably have him do this car once its back on the road on some tire.

I'm not too bad at rolling the fenders, I did them on the blue car, Brett's car, and the white car, they were rolled completely flat and smooth. Jeremiah even thought I did a good job!

I'll probably get the tires on Thursday, leave it at XP Friday, and roll them when I get it back from the tune, I don't think it will squat enough on the dyno to touch them, its stock height back there.

Dang, didn't know you did them...wanna roll mine? I think Jeremiah actually cut mine because there was some filler back there he was afraid would cause distortion if rolled.

Lol, I don't care, I can do that. Yea, he had mentioned something about that when I asked him to cut mine, he was the one that told me how to roll them. They all turned out well. You should check out Brett's when you get your fuel pump back and see what you think.
