Does anyone have a picture of 17" wheels with 11.25" discs/rotors.

I have 17" wheels and am debating whether I should go with an 11.25" disc setup or spend more and get a 13" disc setup. I don't plan on taking the car to the track or anything but I do want it to look good.

I currently have 4-wheel drums. Looking to get a 4-wheel disc setup. I have 17" Cragar SS wheels.

Sorry I have no useful info to offer (I'm the same same 4 wheel drum boat as you) but was wondering if you could throw up a pic of your car/wheel combo. I've always wondered how the 17 in Cragar SS would look and pics are hard to come by

Thanks tcrote5516, that looks pretty good. Do you have anymore shots?

I'm leaning toward the 11.25" because the car will never see a track. Anyone else have any pictures?

I attached a couple of pics from my car with 17's on it. the front have the 13" rotors and the rears are 11.65" rotors. This should give a good side-by-side comparison of the two.
