jaysus. haha. thatl be tough work to fit
your going to have to make overfenders for the rear i would say,
Those rear tyres are fucking insane wide too though get some mega stretch going and it wont look as scary wide.. To be fare a similar arch that was on mine should fit yours the spres would give the same offset
Richie if your selling the diffuser let me know:cool:
I messaged Bart to see if he can get me a pair of overfenders or I will order them meself it's working out about €350 for d-max 50mm overfenders it's gonna look fat from the back :D
Jesus, didn't realise just how wide those Euolines are. It will look mental once you've got the fenders sorted. Loving this FC more and more!
there the over fenders im using havent trial fitted them yet, my wheels would be a little smaller than yours at 18x11 -22 but if i were you id consider a smaller tyre and get some stretch for sure.Quote:

I had those wheels years ago and I bought the tyres new for them and they didn't fill the rims der was so much stretch on the fuckers so 285 30 is abit to small even!! Dey look the tits on my s13 with the stock arch flared for them to fit!! A lot of flare that is!!Quote:
