There are a lot of guys over on svtp that run this size on 10" wide wheels and they usually look pretty decent. With how pumped I was to see them arrive a day early, there will be PLENTY of pictures to come!!!

Have the body shop that painted your car roll your fenders. Body shops usually roll fenders but my buddy actually has an eastwooj fender rolling tool and he's doing it for me for free. If you use the Eastwood tool and a heat gun, you should have no worry of cracking paint. Just don't do it to a cold fender.

And purp...yes. They actually have a decent tread pattern and low treadwear helps with traction in the cold weather. They are not going to be anywhere close to what it will be when temps come up outside, but they will do just fine.

I'm happy for ya on getting them...but dumb idea for winter/cold weather.

Spend the money and get some 16" V6 or 17" starfish (if larger brakes) with some winter tires...the amount of money you spend on making it look/perform better, I wouldn't risk running those in the winter.

Teej you can borrow my stock starfish with hankooks if you want for the winter. Since my car is off the road, I still have the saleens on it.
