I agree, maybe go with black paint. Some places wont mount such a wide tire on a wheel that width, but I guess it just takes a little leg work in order to find someone that will actually do it. Minimum wheel width recommendation for that tire is 9" width, and the OEM wheels are 7.5" wide. ...

Since the tensioners are all oil fed, it's not uncommon to here a little rattle every now and then after a long sit. I wouldn't be worried about it. "Doubt its timing chain, more likely lifters dry and pressurized." -VQ engines have solid lifters, not hydraulic. I agree. I've had both a V...

There would need to be quite a bit of modification and removal of most if not all front plastic shrouding etc, not in the wheel well (well some there too) but more so behind the front bumper. And even after that, when flexing and turning, you still will get some rub.
North America is very loose on their inspections and regulations so we NA guys don;t get much grief, if any at all. I don;t and mine are a little on the extreme side.
