It looks like he didn't do his research and ordered the wrong tires... its never going to fit without flares or a ridiculous amount of body work. I don't understand how this is different than crazy stretch and camber. I hate people who brag about being the lowest or having the smallest tire on a wide wheel, but this is no different.

Just because its a taller sidewall doesn't make it any more functional or different. You know how many times I've seen this on 240 or BMW boards, alot and its because the owner didn't know what he was doing.

I mean if that's what you tried to do, go for it but I don't see why you would want this setup. Maybe shed some light on your intentions OP, unless its just to look cool.
