Default 17x10.5's are on!

I bought a pair of 17x10.5 black Bullits from Mustang Tuning for my wife's birthday, along with a pair of Goodyear F1 GS-D3s in 315/35zr17. The only problem I ran into was that the quad shocks had to come off for them to fit, but that's not a problem if you have aftermarket control arms. Here's a pic:

Here's her Cardomain page if you want to see more pics.

What year is your car biker? If its a 99-up, you shouldnt have to remove a quad shock. If so, I think you leave it off because it will rub the tires. In this case, get some lower control arms if you are removing the quad.

My wife's car has Eibach ProKit springs that are supposed to drop it 1 1/2 inches. As you can see from the side shots, there is no clearance problem with wheel well and the diameter of the tire. According to Goodyear's website, the 315 is a half inch shorter than the 255 it replaced. The only issue is clearance on the inside of the rim hitting the quad shock or the exhaust. As previously stated, we need to know what year car you're talking about before we can get you any more info.
