But the 245/45's I have on there now have a bit of buldge to them, check 1st page pic. Do you guys really think it's too narrow of a tire? I want the sidewall to be flush with the rim in front. I also may need to do some front fender rolling, just in case. Let me know what you guys think.
Thanks ![[patriot]](graemlins/patriot.gif)

Procharger on corral.net is the original guy that got me thinking about this issue of 94-95 spindles not preserving the stock track.
His was the only example of a 18x9 5.95BS rim tucking that I saw years ago, and he did it with Lincoln hardware (albeit with slightly grinded rotor hat).
Gus, check to see what tire size guys on corral.net are running with the 18x9s
245-45-18 = 26.7"
Way too tall IMHO.
Stick closer to 25.75-26.0" in height to achieve the "look"

i actually meant to say go with a 245/40/18 for the front, NOT 245/45/18.
