      More wheel/tire porn

      Just getting the tires up in the wheel wells so I can order my rear housing and snapped a few pics. This is the only one that wasn't blurry! 19x11 Forgelines from frank at Prodigy, tires are 345/35ZR19 Bridgestones. I'll try to post a better one tomorrow.

      Looking cool. Is that a type-o though? 19x11 and a 345 tire?

      Can't wait to see more pix!

      The Centerline was doing it's best to stay on but it just couldn't do it! No typo on the tire size. I think they look good. Bridgestone recommended a 11.5 rim as the smallest so I thought I could get away with the 11.

      few more pics. looks like the rear will be around 53.5 inches flange to flange. sounds narrow to me but i measured it three times so far.

      Man those things look good! I almost ordered the WC3P's or the MD3P's from Frank, but instead I went with VR3P's (all chrome).

      53.5" sounds about right to me with that backspace.i'm run 9.5 with 5" backspace and my rear will be 55" axle flange/axle flange and 55.5" rotor/rotor
      my guess is those 19x11 are around a 5.5" backspace?

      Those wheels are sick!!! That is a tall tire any clearance issues? I had to narrow my rim to 12" to get a 345/30/19 to fit.

      Really? I guess I have a misunderstanding of how tire sizes work. I've got 11" wide wheels and am running 315's.

      Oh well... who cares. Looks really cool.

      I got confused with the tire size stuff also, just kept going to the manufactuer to see what they wanted for wheel width. When I saw Bridgestone recommended a 11.5 through 13 for this tire figured i'd try it and see what it looked like. I'm pretty happy with it. I don't normally like the real short sidewalls with the big wheels but these ended up being around 4 inches. Backspacing on the wheel is 5.5, good guess!
