    Sounds like they'll fit just fine. Go forth with that knowledge and get cutting!
    Hi mate, i have read and also seen the pictures on the link you have me, but taking in consideration that on that topic there is a Mazda , i think the fenders might be a little bit different from the Probe construction and design, i don't know, i might get wrong... that's why i get confused !

    They are the same on the chassis design also ? What fitt in that mazda will fit into Probe also ?

Like you said Erock (94pgt94) is the man to look to for your specs. Shaun also has crazy things going on, but he's on bags now so it may be a little tough to compare
    Is impossible to contact with him, i just saw his new rims and they look awesome, yet they don't get out like i want, like i said, i'm going for the rocket bunny with maxed out rims...

    Do you guys think that going for 19inch rear and 18inch front would look and run ok ?

    After i will put the rims and fenders flares on, i will adjust and do the proper cutting if necessary... i need to think this in every detail, as i dont wanna spend more than 1500euro on rims and fenders flares and then they will not fit or anything else. that's why i'm asking for your opinios here in probetalk, as this is the proper place to answers to my questions. I don't trust in anyone else better than in Probetalk.

      I was gonna go with some 18x9 3pc wheels, but I think I am going to settle with some 17s. Mainly because they are cheaper tires are cheaper. And I will be able to run a slightly thicker sidewall and still be just as low.

      Filip_pine do you have a facebook?

          Mechanically identical underneath.

          I can be nearly certain 18x10.5" will not fit without fender modification and possibly 4-6deg negative camber. You will most likely need to cut and flare which is the rocket bunny look anyway. Without flares you're just hellaflish or something.

            Dilinr, what you mean by fender modifications, you mean cutting the fenders or cutting inside the fenders ?

              As in cutting the actual fender arch back. If you look at the fender flared cars, almost always they cut the arches back so they can fit the wider wheels. The lip of your bolt on arch now becomes your new fender

                  Hmm, im not saying this would be impossible on the Probe's, but cutting fenders underneath would lead us to modified the bumpers bolts and snaps, as it will let the bumper hang... from what i have seen at least...

                  EDIT : Just a quick update people, i have been searching here and then and is impossible here in Europe to have that kit Street Legal. There is no company who will be doing that kit Street Legal and they say that my cat will not pass Technical Inspection if i do that bodykit (
                  Such a big dissapointment for me guys... ****** this Europe s**t i wanna live in the State, if you put a bottle of juice inside your car here it has to be Street Legal, our laws here are a massive bulls**t !!
                  Especially where i live, in Spain ! Unless you're going to use the car for private roads or track !

                  I think i'll be going for the stance and hellaflush look instead, will 18x9.5 ET22 will fit without hitting my KSport Coilovers ? The comoany that sell the rims don't allow me to test fitt them and they are 600km away from my town anyway... Before i pay i wanna make sure they will fitt... I probably must roll my fenders i think....
                  Thanks guys !

                        You truly are a FU***NG winner bud. Come on here assume s**t attempt to flame ppl that are on here on a daily basis. And AGAIN it was directed at a member bumping his post counts to get into the FS section.

                        On another note you clearly must be blind and dumb ( and also have HORRIBLE English) because I have well over 400 posts and don't need to bump threads. Again you are a "special" one, if you even more what that means.

                            Google Translate is awesome for "speaking" many different languages

                            On another note, don't knock the train horns if you've never had a set (or can't afford them)..........

                              Well, when i go out to dinner, i paid for my dinner more than you paid for your Escort )
                              Slow down with ,, rich thing ''.. because if you were rich now you wouldn't drive a grandma car ( Escort ) )) I bet girl's are getting wet when they hear your Hornblasters )))

                              About Google Translate.. there's a saying in my country.. When you cannot achieve something, you use to blame others for trying ... i'm having a lot of fun when i read your posts, honestly... )
