Will 24's fit on my beetle?

Since i'm ghetto fabulous i decided to build the most wicked rad bug. My plan is to fit 24X15 Motegi rims with 425/10/24's on my humble beetle. The tires are pretty phat. Let me know what you think.

Use Baja fenders.

I really don't think there's enough room in the front to steer those wheels.



Your bug would be about 10 inches higher than stock.

even if you got them to fit, how would the car move, stop, turn? to much unsprung weight/rolling inertia in those.
