Default Okay so who has Seibon wide carbon fenders?

Been looking for a good pic of them installed on a car to see how they look. I plan on painting them anyway but just wanted to see that vent and make sure they stick out far enough. They are only 10mm wider. Still will be a squeeze to get 265's in there (got 245's in there now and they go up in smoke as soon as boost hits in 2nd gear from a roll). Anyone?

No one at all has these? I'm amazed considering how many boosted guys are out there with serious traction problems.

my buddy got them for his skyline and they were heavier than stock... seems more cost effective to roll the fenders a bit to run a wider tire.

No way I can roll it that much though. I need to another 12 mm of clearance basically to run a 265 tire which is about half an inch.

what width wheels do you plan to run?


i wanna run 255's and thought i would need the fenders, but they will fit just fine if i trim the inside of the fenders.

i too am running 245's, and they arent adequate enough.. my car still slides on high speed corners.

I'd like to go 9 inch if going 265's. Found out they make a 285/30R18 which would be great but I doubt I can squeeze those in fenders or no fenders.

I'd like those even more if they didn't have that silly vent in them.
