        Can we get a picture with a whole side view of the car so that we can get a better understanding of what it looks like? Thanks from CP.

          Bingo!

          That's if they don't fit with the 205/40's I've got on the way.

          I'm pretty lazy, and I don't really want to make flares if I don't have to. So we'll see.

            here's some fitment shots of the front.

            Once the rear tires get swapped out for the same size - 205/40, all I have to wait for is nice weather



            I think the tuck is kind of cute, I don't think I'll use a spacer

              if you want to tuck them in more in the front the protege DX with the 13" wheels has narrower LCAS so that could help bring them in too
              I live my life a quarter pounder at a time. And for those 500 calories or more, I'm free. I need FRIES! Two of them. The big ones. Oh, and I need them tonight. You're lucky the double shot of BBQ sauce didn't blow the seam on your nugget box. There she is, 2 pounds of pure beef. My dad ate it in 9.0 seconds flat. Check it out, it's like this. If I lose, winner takes my happy meal. But if I win, I take the burger and the toy. To some people, that's more important.

                  Using Linux for anything serious besides server or software dev is like using a tin can and a string for telecommunications.

                        Actually, I can rotate the tires, they're the same size all around. Just have to unmount and remount them. Cheaper to just buy a new set, $60 a piece :D

                        I'll get more pics on my next day off

                              Reagarding the staggered fitment. If those tires are not directional, switch sides. Thats what I did on my 71 Nova 350 / 350. Worked fine.
