SORRY i should have been more specific iv got a 98 cobra. i used to have a fox when i registered but due to a strange knocking noise it got sold 1 month after i bought it. and i agree only 18's or smaller should go on fox's. i posted this on here because theres more traffic in here than 4.6 or svt if you know were i can get bigger than 20inch cobra r's or 20 inch bigger than 8.5 wide please let me know thanks

Ever thought about standing out and going away from the norm of cobra r rims? If so i think i nice rim is the 94-98 Saleen one maybe get a Saleen wing to accent it a little but thats just my 2 cents

20" rims on a fox.. WTF.. you would need a about 3" lift kit to fit them under the fenderwells.. hey maybe while your at it you can put hydros on it too ..

but then again who am i to talk.. my 17s are just HUGE on my fox i had to buy flared fenders for them.. too big so i have no room to talk 17X10.5F AND 17X12 REAR

i would rather put 4 temporay spares on the notch then roll around on 20s.. AT LEAST THEY WOULD FIT

15s yes, 16s yes, 17s yes 18s yes 19s, 20s, 22s, and up.. NO

if you want bling bling.. buy a gm vehicle.. maybe a nice.. CAMARO .. lmao yeah a CAMARO on 20s .. thats BLING BLING

You're going to need 600 HP to turn those damn things.

Not to mention they'll look too big. Leave the dubs for the homies.

Man don't listen to what anyone tells you. If you want to put 20's on your car then go ahead and do it. See the thing about most of the people on this site is they dont really care about aesthetics, or if you mention anything about big rims they automatically assume that your a rap star or that your super ghetto (hence the bling bling comments). I live in a very very very ghetto part of the world (east palo alto, and oakland california) so i have seen plenty of every type of vehicle in the world on 20 inches and bigger. Right now i have an uncle that has a 01 gt, and his is on 20 inch rims, and it does not look fugly. It does look clean, but like everyone says you will get less traction. so if your building a vehicle for show then go for it, but if your trying to really race the car then dont put anything larger than 18's. i have 18's on my fox body, and i have never heard anything bad from anyone about the way my car looks. even though half of the people on this site will say that 18's are too large for a fox. well they look fine, and they fit fine. 18x9.5 on a 90 ex chp, wheelwell slightly rolled, no quadshocks, turndowns, with a panhard bar and torque arm. car handles like a champ, and with the motor currently making 318rwhp, and 330 tq at the rear. on street tires i have ran a 12.1 at 116. but the car also weighs under 3k. thats just my 2 cents. please no one flame me.

you said a$$ clown. I guess you should triple gold plate those 20's. There's a guy in Orlando that sells 20 inch triple gold plated 240 spoke Daytons with transparent green dice valve stem caps. The green is for the money and the gold is for the honeys....G's up ho's down while you mutha's bounce to this....WORD.
