Shane,
Im looking at the black bullet wheels 18x10 rear 18x9 front. I want to get some nice looking tires on the front and the back that do not stick out past the fenders. I also have at least a 1 in lowering kit (maybe more) and do not want to have any scrubbing.
So I'm not dead set on those sizes but not sure if the standard packages that are offered by american muscle 275/35/18 on front will fit.

I got my set of FR500s from AM in 18x9 275/35 front and 18x10 285/35 rear and can tell you that on my 03 Mach they fit PERFECTLY. They do not stick out past the fenders and no rolling of the fender is required. I can turn full lock to both directions and there is no rubbing in the front.
Did yours have a lowering kit?

Ha, no I'm good. I daily the car and these roads are pretty unforgiving. I already have noticed my rear cats have dents and scrapes. Having to creep over speed bumps is already a pain. I'll leave the height alone I think. How far is yours lowered? I bet it looks nice.

I have the H&R ss springs in front and the race springs in the back. I love the drop. I think it's a 2in in front and 1.5 or 1.75in in the back. Ca roads are atrocious due to our earthquakes ******* them up but I get by just fine
