If I do them, they will have to be 275/35s which make them a little shorter than stock.

Maybe you could try to sell the rears and upgrade? I bought 10.5 for the back just so I wouldn't be limited. Have you put on the mud flaps? Do you have any pics?

Btw, I took your advice and bought the M8. Love it!

AS of now, I have felt no difference really. In the colder months it's a little rougher since the front tires are stretched now.

Not even gonna bother with trying to sell them as I should be fine with 275/35s, the height difference really isn't that big. And when you say mud flaps, do you mean the ZL1 ones? If so then yea I have pics in my build thread and if you want more just ask.

And great choice with the M8. I would choose it over any other phone at this point even after 3 months of ownership and using the S5.

I have about 85,000 miles on this car. Next year I'm sure I'll be car shopping, but only for something bigger and better.

She's a tough southern gal, so she's probably putting her shoes on.

Yea it was between this or the nexus but with it being an "old" phone, I decided to splurge and get this one. Love it! Really like the forward facing speakers. I didn't realize how big a difference they are. Could you pm me how much you paid for all 4? Now that I have big tires, I need them

I'm window shopping now. But I'm hoping to upgrade around the same time the Camaro is paid off, since I intend to keep it. And not have to deal with 2 payments.

You still considering the new Mustang?
