They Fit!!!

UPS dropped them off today. One look at the wheel lip and sidewall told me it was a go. I can get my first knuckle on my finger in between the tire and strut. If the tires didn't have such big lip protectors, it wouldn't even be close. I'm stoked now. Thanks to everyone who posted here and got me through the last few days.

Does anyone have any pics of a setup like this?? Thanks!
My car has all stock suspension.

Here's some pics, there's more at the end of this thread.
Looks great
I'll probably go with the same combo - Thanks for posting the pics.
I've been trying to decide which tire to go with for several weeks now.
I want a nice combo of treadwear, traction / temp - with little or no road
noise. How do these ride with the stock suspension - is the ride quality good on 40's ?
