To my knowledge, he had to trim/pull the rear fender to make them fit, but he should chime in on this.

I also have the same rims, but I bought all fronts to avoid fitment issues.

Since the Solara is a FWD vehicle, why not buy all fronts (spacers optional) to avoid issues on rotating tires? Probably save a few bucks in wheels and tires?

^Collecting all fronts isn't cheap nor easy to find. Trust me, I did it.

^^ very true. Well tire wise, i got the same size all around so tire price is the same.

The only thing is that the rears have a light stretch to the tire. And offset is what is different.

BTW the Fronts dont fit the rear, They will touch the rear struts, so u still need spacers.

You guys realize that this IS the Gen 2 thread as well, right? Spacers and fitment issues are a bit different between the two. ;)

slightly off topic, but 18x7.5 should fit fine right?

^ on a Gen 2 with 38-42 offset you should have any problems.
