I spent today removing cleaning and installing the new rear disc brakes. Everything went on pretty smooth. These tires and rims are pretty large, 18x8 low profile. I've run 17x7's before without and mods anywhere but these I wasn't sure about and from what most people said they won't work on a bug. These came off a bug from Florida so I know they'll work but wasn't sure of the mods that might have to be done. From what I can tell from measuring outside tire to outside the tires should still fit with-in the fenders. The only problem I did see is the inside of the tires are to close to where the rubber stop hits the top near the rear shock. So I'll have to do some checking to see if I need to use that rubber stopper or if I can trim the tops off at the shock tower.
