that's because the front fenders are already flared in those pics

hopefully I'll have something to contribute to this thread within the month (waiting on wheels), going with 305's in the rear and 265 in the front...so stretched and flushed

OK, first off, two apologies. My pictures aren't nearly as professional as what's been posted here (neither is my car), and I'll be happy to remove them once my question is answered. Also, my garage is kind of a mess, it's been windy and I'm cleaning out my basement.

Do you think the fronts are sticking out too much? I've got Coupe 18's on my AWD Sedan, and I'm trying to decide if the 245/45-18's you see in the picture will work up front. I think they look fine (even better in person), but the stretched tire crowd hasn't so far. I want opinions from the fat tire crowd. The car is not dropped at all, but will be getting a mild drop (1" F/R) once I get tires.

they look fine at stock height, once you get a drop they will camber in slightly and sit in a little bit and be slightly tucked

+1, dont let the stretchers disway you from what you wanted to do, once dropped it will tuck, but be sure to freshen up that alignment once you drop it to make sure your toe is dialed in.

My old setup below is just barely fat. My new one will be more stretch though.
Front:19X9.5, +7offset, 255/35
Rear:19X10.5, -2offset, 275/35
