Hey guys - haven't posted in long while, i've been working on my '56 pickup, but have just started back in on the '65 'stang... just bought a r&c front crossmember and a chassisworks back half kit and need some help planning for future tires.

The problem is that I need 28" tall tires for the rear because that is the lower limit for the 4-link and would like to go with a larger than 15" rim in the back.

I haven't found any really wide tires in 16-17" rims that are 28" tall, only in 15 and 18. Do you guys think an 18" rim would look too weird pushed way up into the wheel well like they are on tubbed cars?

thanks for the input
-Matt
