19's usually come in 8-8.5" wide, so running them with a 235 tire shouldnt be too bad for that bulgle, but will look funny with 8.5" wide wheels, but just about right with 8" wide.(on the 235)

ok thanks for answering that question, so has anyone else had this bulge i am talkign about, if it makes a difference i have the phase II fenders on, so maybe they are slightly different than stock and the linings dotn fit on right, but i dont think that is it, any suggestions on the bulge??

it's bulging out of your fender lining??? wtf? did u put it in there crooked? mine doesn't come within 2-3 inches of touching the liner...... move the pipe around or something.... i think you may have drilled the hole in the wrong spot.

nope the hole is in the right spot i checked it for liek 20 minutes b4 i drilled it, i lined it up with the 2 battery holder holes and i have a 95 so i had that off center hole but i know i didnt drill there cause that hole is in the peice that i cut out, so i think it must be that the fenders are sized differently than stock...i will try to fiddle with it this weekend, thanks, everyone, if u have any more suggestions let me know, thanks, ross

I didnt think that they would be different....jsut throwin that out there, i tried to spin it and i cant spin it anymore, b/c it hits that fuse box there and it also spins right into the fenderwall that slopes up next to the strut tower, i will try putting stock fenders back on this weekend and see if there is a difference jsut for kicks
