Damn, going to look crazy! Any more shots of the wheels?

I would say custom/universal flares would be your best bet but do try to make sure they cover the entire OE arch.

I sold the Panspeed fenders a while back but I don't think they would be enough for these either way. Looking forward to progress

A 225 on a 10' rim & 255 on a 12'? Is there something I'm missing here?

That's exactly like my old setup (except my rear had 245 tires).

You can go much much lower on the Stance as well.

Hey all, I have a wheel/tire setup off my 93 RX-7:

17x8 +22 with 225/45 fronts
17x9 +27 with 245/40 rears

Running stock suspension on the 8, can I get these to fit?

With 336 pages on this topic, I was having trouble finding a comparable setup
