Guest Anonymous Posted January 4, 2002 Share Posted January 4, 2002 I just picked up a set of street flares and was wondering what size of tires is the best fit for front and back for them. They are going on my 76 280z with a ford 5.0l 5 speed. thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavyZ Posted January 4, 2002 Share Posted January 4, 2002 Are they 4" flares or close to it? Davy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Anonymous Posted January 5, 2002 Share Posted January 5, 2002 If they are street flares then you should easily be able to fit a 9" wide rim with 245 or 255 width tires. The ones that Motorsport sells are only 2" wide. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stony Posted January 5, 2002 Share Posted January 5, 2002 Just remember that just because you install flares dosnt mean bigger tires will work. Youll have to either cut or reform teh sheetmetal under the flares so you dont tear up the tires Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
