I run 275s & 315s with stock fenders. Surprised you don't get more rubber with GT2 Flares.

I suppose it all depends on your ride height, alignment and actual tire width and height.

Thanks Javier, I finally did it!

Correct. The further out you push the offset the more there is to hit when you turn the wheel. It gets worse as you increase castor and at the end of the day you can hit the back of the bumper when you turn the wheel

Also I kept the fender liners as this is a street only car.

Thanks, Not sure why i kept the console, kinda wanted a somewhat street car look and not just total race. Also why i had the interior resprayed, rather than just tear out carpet.
