I have them on all 3 corners of my ES... Love them, and run them all forward tread pattern... Steers well with ITP up there

I just did 14" with ITP BajaCross on the back. Haven't decided on the front yet. Back spacing is going to be fun to figure out. On the flip side if I leave the front alone the larger tire should make for a smoother ride. As its got more air in it than the modern low profile tires. Nice looking ATC sir!

Nice Thorpe! Do you recall the back spacing on your front rim? Are they 10 or 12"?

thorpe how much did the wheels and tires cost you and did you make the spacer yourself. your big red looks sick with those wheels, sweet ride man!

Can't recall the cost anymore... Been wheeling them for 4-5 years now... Yes, I made the spacer myself, worked in a shop with access to a mill and lathe. Thanks for the compliments, I have been having fun with it...
