I have had 3.5 rims actually rub if you have to run a 155 or 165 section tire.
I guess that you can run 6 in. rims if you don't mind a little rubbing ;^).
I have to think that maybe they had a different offset to them? Anyways, it
doesn't matter just modify the wheel arch as every racer does. They look OK
that way if they are done correctly.
