Hi guys, just wondering if anyone in AUS can supply aftermarket front gards for the soarer. I remember there was someone in aus who did but that was ages ago. my reason for wanting one of these is that run work equips 18x9 +35 on the front with 245/35/18 tyres and they stick out approx 10-15mm more. And i dont really like the look of flared gards as it will loose its sexy smooth look

I run Work XD9s in 18x9 + 38 on the front with no issues at all. They are flush.

You shouldn't need to run wider guards. Just roll them and you'll be fine.

I've had 17x9 +19 and 19x10 +35 on the front of my soarer and they don't rub with a guard roll. There's no need to run crappy fiberglass guards unless you really require it.

18*9.5 +38 here with a 235/40 with no rub at all. You could always run a skinner tire as well to help with clearance.

nah, lesson learnt with streched tyres, easier to gutter and if you turn hard enough, the tyres will roll off. Anyone good pictures of soarer with rolled gards?
