the 295 on 8 inch wheel, i measured, about 11.8 section width, 29.7 on the height, figured it will be useful to someone, only measurments i could find were on a 10 inch wheel, and those i had heard were not right anyway

Thanks for posting that up. Post a pic of the car broadside when you get it on the ground if you don't mind.

Problem w/mine is I run a coilover rear setup that I hate and it sits a little lower than stock. Looks good IMO but doesn't leave much room for tire. Tried 275/60 on 8" rim drove it one mile down highway and got into quarter. So now I run a 28/11.5 et street tire which is a little narrower and it fits perfect. Just doesn't help me hook well :x
