315s on a Fox
I posted this in another thread, but thought it deserved a new posting. Here is my '87 GT wearing 315s on the front end. I have rear fender extensions that fit 315s as well, and will try to get a picture of those later when the car comes back from the exhaust shop. The car has way too many mods to list, starting with a SLA suspension up front, Watt's Linkage in the rear, Viper Tranny, Baer brakes, etc. This cars is licensed to drive on the street, but could run in an American Iron or AIX race (although I do not want to gut the interior).

RE: 315s on a Fox
It's amazing that you have 315s on the front when some people have problems putting them on the back.
But my question to you is: What is the purpose of having such wide tires up front? Plan on motox?

RE: 315s on a Fox
^^ I even think THAT looks horrible.
Sorry man, I know you prob put alot of time and effort into it but I think it looks like hell. Dont get me wrong, you did a nice job and the quality is good but the way it looks is just horrible. Why did you go through all of that for a 5.0? That stuff belongs on Honda's! If you ever plan on comming back here I would cut the front end off and start over!
