Nice Justin.

Did you have to tuck the wheel lips in the back to make the 275's fit? Do you ever lower it?

Great set of Mods.

Welcome to the Board.

Thanks for the warm welcome guys!

I didnt have to tuck the wheel lips, the 275's fit in there fine. i've had the car lowered down to the ground, the tires were extremly close to touching the lips, since i dont drive it when it's lowered that much it's fine.. but if you did drive with the car slammed they would definatly rub.
Here's a couple pics with the car slammed, you can see how close it is.

I'm not exactly sure what the offset on the rims are.. they are the ones Geno sells , maybe he'll chime in on that one.
