i didnt want to sift through all the threads, so sorry if this is a repost...but whats the biggest RIM i can fit under my 5.0 and whats the back spacing on it? i wanna get this thing to hook for once. i obviously dont want the tire to hit the body when i hit turns hard, but i want it to be close, real close, lol.


and yes, with stock suspension....i'm not gonna four link or latter bar it. i have no problem tubbing the topside, though.

for drag?? i have stock 16's with 285 60 16's packed into the wheel well...but i would personally rather go with 18's with a smaller side wall but just as wide if not wider

sorry, cant help you there, but there are some on craigslist. i think they are stock 16's, or you can check near the junkyards. they have used rim shops down there. i wouldnt go any larger than 18's

it would just be too big for the car, and it would look ugly as hell. i think 17's and 18's fit nicely on a lowered fox. more than you will ever need. i personally was thinking deep dish 18's and get a thick ass side wall on the back and try to tuck it up into my rear wheelwell when ever i can get the money. (of course i would do the 5 lug conversion)
