IMO...17,18,19 are the sweet spot on F and X Bodies. You need to do a ton of work to the inner fenders to get bigger ones to look OK. I usually don't even spec a 20 until you're into a Chevelle (GM intermediate body) and then 22 in the rears is a definite max. Full size cars look best with 20/22 combo. SUVs and trucks are really the only time I would use 24+ size rims. My $.02

Damn :unibrow: :thumbsup:
That looks really cool!
I mean that this work, but i dont think it will look good with bigger wheels than that.
But that looks really killer :thumbsup:

Here is another with 20/22's

If you're gonna do it, it HAS to be on bags and down plowing ant hills :D

The only tough call is to do 22's, or run 20x13 with 345/25/20's out back. Having 3ft of rear tire gives it quite a presence.

Either way it would be a money setup for driving around pulling girls :yes:

I just got home from the drag strip and my 37 ford with M/T radial sportmans(the new pro street tires) that are 33x22x20's ran 9's.

It's what you like, but to me 18's whould look nice to me. Again it is what you like.
