    so how much room do you have for tire clearance now due to the offset? think you could run a wider tire up front?? 225/50r14 perhaps??
    Yeah, flairs will look good on that car. Just don't do them like the previous owner did to my car. I took them off the day I got the car. They looked like crap on the car.

    Take time go mould them into the fenders and I think they will look good on your car, with it's wide wheels and everything. Just don't screw them in with cheap screws like my car had.

      those wheels are from old toyota celicas from the 80'. i use to own a set on a 77' toyo corolla wagon, they are for rear wheel drive. in my opinion, they stick out to much, they make your car look like a old wagon form the wild west, but hey im not saying your ride looks bad. with that engine combo and some low profile tires, will make that little firecracker to stick like a bat out of hell. i like it, good jod!

        If my suspension wasn't somewhat stiff I would rub. I plan on cutting the fenders a bit when I put flares on it but I have 2 more sets of tires this size so ill be at this set up for a while

          Ya they stick out pretty far, but the flares should make it look a lot better
