Default 335/35/17 Hoosiers mounted, pics!

Here are a couple of pictures as requested of the 335's mounted, they aren't great (iPhone pics) but you can see. There is a show and shine this weekend that I'm going to get some better pictures at.





Thoughts?

No spacers, and the wheel wells didn't need too much banging, I hit the part where the frame rail rests behind pretty good and just tried to smooth out the rest. It has to be the wheels and the offset, its pretty close to perfect. I had Goodyear 315's on before with no modification and they didn't rub at all. They are 17x12 Fikse's but I bought them used so I have no clue on the offset.

Don't mind the dirty wheels or missing lugnut (just go them on today and couldn't find my lock key)







The sidewalls look huge in those pics for some reason (probably because you can see the "tread" on the contact patch too, but it is deceiving.

They are quite a bit bigger than my GY 315's, and look quite a bit bigger than some 315 Hoosier that were mounted on a set of 17x11 ZR1's in the show room of the shop I was at.

i experienced those tires a few years ago in that size. they did a good job at low psi. i was pretty impressed but will say anytime drove over any type of seam in the road you could hear them, just like large steam roller. also any moisture on hte road and you might as well pull over... these were on a 383 LT4 97 camaro ss

The car won't see rain, and if it is damp outside I'm pulling over and getting it towed, not worth it. I'd imagine they would be pretty bad in the ruts. A good note is that I forgot to even see how they felt on the Highway, I had already been on for 10 mins before I remembered so they seem good on the HWY to me!

How the heck did you do that with your sig anyway?
