i've got flares...lol

You also dont wanna go too wide. i think it will look kinda funny. mine flare out almost as much as the side view mirror (well, the rear does). when you look at it from the rear, it looks soooooo fat and sexy. lol

If your dead set on doing it, i would not go more than a 1.25" look. but they have to be done right.
almost there...what do you think?

your retarted dude. hey, let everyone know that its not the easiest job to just say that they want to throw on some fender flares and get wider tires. its a huge pain. involves alot of bondo, patience and sweat. or if your not gonna do it...alot of money. They way I have my car setup is so that if i wanna drop it ALL the way down (cuz i'm on CO's) i can still technically drive the car b/c the wheel is still tucked in. Yet when you just look at it, it doesnt really looked tucked in. its kinda hard to explain, you have to see it in person to truly appreciate it.
