So 10" +38 with a 275/40 seems to be the safest way, I guess


I'm debating the 10" +18 with a 255/40. Tires position would be the same as a 10" +38 with a 275/40.

half of it goes on the inside and a 255/40 would give you some stretch whereas a 275 would be square

Thank you bro! Do you have any other angles? It looks like a glare above the wheel... Or maybe that's just some nasty damage. I saw ramons car and I really didn't see much damage. Maybe a eye check up is in order... Lol

I think his may be photoshopped to seem better than it actually is.

Mine is in the body shop getting repainted.

Omgg. I see it now!! Nastyness. That shit caved in funky style.

If it buckles, could I drill a hole in the quater, pull it back out and get it smoothed with minimal bondo, then paint? I know everything is possible with $$$ but I'm not looking to drop 4k to have super aggressive rears.

you could try to pull it back out, but chances are, the bottom will go back in pretty much defeating the purpose of the pull

Your a dream maker and dream taker.

Fawkkkk. I want those 10" +18

how do you run 11.5" +19 on a fairly stock rear? Compinsating with tire and camber specs? It boggles my mind.
