Looks like a tight sqeeze...the machined lip is not doing it for me. I love the Rota boosts normally. gold would have been fresh!

Looks like crap.

sorry. I friggin hate that look. That's not a 1984 vw rabbit for crying out loud.

235's on 9 inch rims? You can do that on 7.5 inch rims or 8 inch rims. Put some 265's on there. I could care less how big your rims are....tires man...tires.

That's like telling your lady... look how big my ***** are.

yeah but you wont ever get that concaved spoke look with a 7.5-8" wide high offset rim

Obviously putting such large rims on a car hes doing it for aesthetic reasons, you know, some people like that sorta thing. Not everyone needs 265s all around to "hit dem twisties y0"
