Also, for those that like to install super wide sticky tires, you may want to consider the aerodynamics. Tires the poke out of the fenders will create turbulence. You can Google why you don't want turbulence around your vehicle.

There are two solutions that I can think of.
1) Use slimmer tires
2) Install wider fenders

Option #1 may not be feasible for the autox crowd due to modification restrictions. However, since autox doesn't usually exceed 40mph, the extra turbulence created is probably negligible.
