Those 18inch rims don't look too bad.They actually go good with your paint scheme.Mount em up and see how they look.Post some pics also.

I also think 17" (I am a 15" weld kinda guy) is the max on these cars BUT those 18's really don't look bad size wise. If it were me and I already owned them, I would use em and paint them to match the silver body color.

some people will jump on me but I always liked the cobra r wheels on "some" foxes. I don't think they should be totally tossed out has a wheel choice. I think they will look good since they look good on fiveohwblow's car and his is pretty close to yours. I'm with the others though and stay away from the 20" wheels and even some of the 18's look like crap on these cars. 17" are always a safe bet.

Thanks man! I didnt see this before but I really appreciate it

Ive had em for 7 years and that was probably right at the height of popularity but I have no reason to change em as I think they look good too

What did you decide OP?

18's are the absolute most that should go on a Fox, and even then they usually don't look great. Personally I wouldn't go past 17. Those particular 18's are hideous and look like Dodge Dakota wheels or something. The 20's are nice wheels...but best for an S197. 20's do not work on anything older than 2005.

EDIT: read more and saw your actual wheel choice. Good call.
