are 8in sunnies too wide?

Post by Tzi »

I bought some trak2 sunnies on ebay last month, and after much hastles they have arrived.
The guy said they previously had 10.5x31 R15's on em... which after looking around seems to be rather common on a feroza.
My question is.... They are 8in wide, not 7in.... is that going to be a problem... and if so.. how much do i need to lift it? :roll:

ive jacked my car 2 inches and put on the 8inch sunnies, or in my case speedy desert rat et28's and it looks FAT and tall. will put some pictures up in a few days. The wheels do hang out past the guards so if your worried about the FUZZ then 8's are probably too wide.
