315 35 is what id like. I have 285 40's too. I love the look of a termi from the rear.

yeah 315 would look sick, I've only seen a 305 on the back of our cars so far though and it was a wide tire, looked awesome though.

Vader,
Instructions couldn't have been easier. You have to do some drilling but nothing that wouldn't be cover up if you went back to the original grille. All and all it took me about an hour or so with a beer break in there somewhere. I might look into getting the fog covers from AM though. I also need to decide on what I'm going to put on the grille ie; the tribar horse or maybe the cobra. I kinda like plain as of right now. I can post some other shots if you want.
