Yeah, I know Lidio has his notchback with some HUGE 18" wheel on it. I know he has 11.5" wheels with a 345-18 inch tire on his Mach 1, and I think he has the same set up on his notchback.....he said it was a lot of work, and he now cannot run tail pipes. I drove behind him one night on Woodward and the car is very very intimidating....and FAST!!! Thanks for the reply....anybody else??

With tires over 11" wide, i'd probably go nuts.

You should post pictures on his car if you can find them- please. I have extremely wild 255's on my rig.

Those are ridiculous. Would look even better on a 5.0 LX with the higher bumper cover, revealing more meat.

Mucho thanks Adam. I don't see very many foxes with those wheels. I've always thought they would look good with gunmetal powdercoat(not the center caps).
