Lets start first with this: Yes, as Pantera 1887 guesses, I will put flares on my car.
So, to big-wheels ride-hight. As 1887 says, there are a few high riders out there, since not all builders are planning and executing as good as 4HOTROD and others do. I dont want to be among the ones that plan badly..
As for how tall the tires is. Standard body cars might have 26,5" high tires. 335/35-17 tires is betvine 26,2 and 26,5. That is just fine, but when you have flares, and the wide rear 345/35-15 is no more than 24,9" tall you have a difference og apr. 1,5"!
If, as some "4x4" has, the upper part of the tire has the correct amount of air betvene it and the flares, that 1,5" extra tire will have to lift the whole car.
SO, back to what I need: Backspacingmeasurements for the 10" and 14" wheels. Anyone?
