I puchased the last set Darian had for sale and am in love with them. The fitment was perfect, and for me just the right amount of updating and not too much bling. Especially for my car.

With the 295's in the rear WOW what a different look!





Also I just have to add, if your worried about shipping don't. Darian shipped them to me New Mexico to Florida arrived safe and sound. The packing job was over the Top.

Not to steal your thread Darien, but are you guys rolling your rears to fit 295/30?

I got a set of hollow spoke TT's on way... and trying to decide btw 285 and 295. I really don't want to roll the fender.

Good luck with the sale, Darien. Should not be a problem selling them for that price.

I did not roll my fenders. I just gave them a good tug before I bolted on the rears.

My ride height In the rear (only) was a little lower than spec. around 170mm (IIRC spec. is 175mm). I did raize the rear to about 180mm which I think is in tolerance according to the WSM.

In the pic's I posted the ride height had not yet been adjusted higher.

Also not to high jack this thread, but if I only raised the rear approx. 10mm do I need to get an alignment again. (I just aligned my car a month or so ago?) I have noticed in many threads the answer is "yes"

Hey Jim, It really depends on your rear suspension. On my 86.5 they fit perfect with only a tug on the fenders. Tony has the same and I think he rolled only his fender lips. On my 88 with worn suspension, I had to roll the fenders, but I ended up adjusting the ride height.

Dave, did you get the alignment at Sears? If so, I think they give a 6 month warranty so you could take it back and say you want it checked again. But I don't think you need to worry with that small amount of ride height adjustment only on the rears

Thanks Guys! I'm kinda stuck with 285s anyway because that's the largest all-sesaon available. Year round DD.

I am curious. I bought a set of 18" x 10J porsche Carrera 4 sport wheels that actually measured 11" wide from edge to edge.

Does a 11 J measure 12" wide from edge to edge?

roughly, yes. The 11" measurement is to the inner lip (I think called rim bead).
