For those with Fender Flares... What size wheels/tires did you go with? Pictures would be appreciated, I hope I dont get flamed but I tried searching and didnt come up with any.

A simple roll and I run 245/45/16 on 8-inch rims - street. With CP flares we run 10-inch wheels with 275 Hoosiers - race car.

I went with the following wheel/tire combination

Fronts are Watanabe 16X9 -13 offset, 4X114.3 lug. Tires are Mich Pilot Sport A/S plus 225/50ZR-16

Rear are Watanabe 16X9.5 -19 offset, 4X114.3 lug. Tires are Mich Pilot Sport A/S plus 245/50ZR-16

Lots of mods to accept bigger wheels. Struts/springs/hubs/camber plates/:)...

Fronts are Watanabe 16X9 -13 offset, 4X114.3 lug. Tires are Mich Pilot Sport A/S plus 225/50ZR-16

Nice looking ride!

Those tires with those flares don't necessarily warrant all your listed mods. Those offsets and tire sizes should work with stock springs and shocks.
