If you want to have an 11 inch wheel to tuck, you need to mini-tube.
Write it down, take a picture, you heard it here first ![[Wink]](wink.gif)

This is 10's about the widest you can fit is an 10.5 and you'll be rubbing like mofo.
Anything over that and you MUST mini tub or flare the quarters.

Maier sells 3" rear fender flares for $520. Hasn't Blown67 installed them? I should PM him. Are flares near OEM fit or a nightmare?
Luke posted this awhile ago that I'm thinking of nibbling off of. 17x12 droollllage

I'm running the 1.5 maier flares. front is a complete fender. fit an finish is pretty good. rears are a bolt on stlye than have a shop mold them in an take screws out after the epoxy. I havent done this step yet just overlayed the rear panel an came to a hualt due to money to finish the body work. heres a couple pics of my svo with 18x10.5's all 4 corners.

BlowN67: How does it mold to the rear bumper? Tucking it in, screw, then epoxy + removal of screws will make it stable?
3" flares would probably make it tougher then.
Do you have any pics of how it connects to the rear bumper?

I use work at Maier back in the day, I would say that the flares take alot of detail work to make them look right.

maybe things have changed over there but i dont see the rears being to hard to make look right. a good shop can do it no prob. i got a qoute from them to have them do it an its wasnt that bad of a price an it would be ready for paint when i got it back.

No way. I wish though. I need to buy a motor first.
