If I were to do an absolute square setup would you do the 35 or 30 sidewall?

Looks great Steve. Any close ups? All I can think of is Bette Midler's "From a Distance"

i have 8.5 front 9.5 rear ce28n setup..

before i was running toyo Proxss4 235 front 295 rear with 15mm spacer front and 5mm spacer rear with no problem.

i changed my tires to Nitto Invo.. 285 rear and 245 fronts.. well the nitto 285s are wider than the toyo 295 !!

so the tires were rubbing in the rear!! removed the 5mm spacers!! they still rubbing!!!

should i roll the fenders or i have to change the tire size

265/30 or 275/30 would be proper sizing

^^ah really? So stay with 30 ratio front and rear?

Thanks Chris! Posted another side profile. The other creeper pic was from my room haha

And how does the stance look? Thinking of maybe doing the rear rubber mount mod, but looks level right now

Def start by rolling your fenders, it's so cheap I don't know why you wouldn't do that first anyway

Def doable without the fender roller, just make sure you take your time and are using a heatgun

So I finally got a chance to take some decent shots of my car with the new tire setup that i had for a few months now.

Front 18x10 +14 - 265/35/18
Rear 18x11 +14 - 295/35/18

No Spacers

Yes fenders rolled all 4 corners.

Yeah I hate that lip.

I am probably going to do a bumper eventually. I just can't find anything that's not fiberglass.

Any suggestions?
