235/35,wanted to run 245/35 but that probably wont work out lol.

i originally was gonna get some 245/35 for the rear as well, but these 255/35 were 100 for the pair. (getting used tires first to see what size i can/want to run) and since swarlos ran 255/35 on hits 9.5 +30, mine should work with a roll

alright guys, sneak peak of my wheels with some crappy iphone pictures. i still have to roll my fender and definitely lower my front more.

my rear has about half a pinky gap, but my front has 2 whole finger gaps!!! need to lower it asap!

question: i think i might even be able to push the front tires to 245/35? thoughts?

im also picking up rear camber kits this week, after test fitting the front, i don't think i'll need them.









235/35/19


255/35/19


rear


wont even fit my whole pinky


half-ass shot


front. omg gap
