What good is a 10" wide wheel if all you can put on it is a 235? That tire would fit on the stock 7" rims. When you widen the wheel you increase your unsprung weight so the only benefit would be the capability to install larger tires. Since you can't...whats the point. Sorry...but I just don't get it.

Because it's JDM tight yo! :biglaugh: But it does look cool!

I would rather try to fit a 295 on a wheel with the correct offset :dunno:
Because I only want mad dorifto when I try, not every time I hit full throttle. LOL

I'm all about aggresive offsets, but thats just rediculous.. I could even see a bit (5 maybe 10mm) more then I have

but thats just.... too much.. like a little low rider with the wire wheels that stick out of the wheel wells..

Nah, just post it. BTW, I don't think you want any guy "in your throat". That's nasty (in a Cleveland voice). Haha, just jokin yo!
