if your keeping the stock fenders and hood a 215/35/18 wont fit. it will hit the tops of the fenders and wont lay out. my 215/35/18s hit my fenders when laid out and you did a 1/4'' more of a body drop than i did. here is a picture of a doored toyota on 215/35/18s, see dont fit

we already talked about it and he said no to a 17 cause I suggested that too but Its all good if we have to go with a 30 series tire that will mean we can go with a 20 in the rear. woot hoo!!!

P.S. we were suppose to work today but his son is pretty sick so no progress report for today but maybe by the end of the weekend there will be some.

yea from the looks of it we will have to run some 215/35/18's in the back. Is there a 30 series 18? If not what I will do is pie cut the fender and make it level insted of sloping down in the front. That should creat enough clearance to clear the 35 series tire up front.

I forget who makes it now, but I once found a 205/35/18 tire. It was something like 23" tall I think.

nice work. It all looks proportional (sp?)
