Default black bullits on a black fox???

Anyone got some bullits on a fox (preferably DD's in the back), with pictures, or know of any pics with these wheels on it? i think my welds are ok, but i been thinking about something new to change things up a bit. I was gonna go with the chrome cobra R's, but wanted to see a fox wit some bullits before i jump on some cobra's.

Any pics of some fatties (dd's) in the back are welcome if they're on a fox. If it's a vert, even better!! I'm gonna paint it tripple black sometime in the near future, and wanna change things up a bit from the welds. just don't like the skinny's on the front of a non-drag car.

Not a big fan of the black on black. Here's some chrome bullits, 17x9 w/ 275's on the rear.







17x8.5 w/ 275's as well. Cobra reps though.

did you have to remove the quad shock to fit those 17x9's on the back?? and do you have any scrubbing problems with those beasts on there, and would it make a difference on a vert? I like the deep look on the back, and i kinda dig the black with the polished lip on the bullits (your's look sweet, but im po, so i want to save a little money by going black). Will the deeps fit in the back on a fox by the way??

Sorry bout pounding all those ??'s in there, but i wanna get some info of what i need to do before i start twisting wrenches for the 5 lug conversion.

Did some digging and found these 2 pics. They are 10.5" on the rear of both of them, which brings up some more ??'s being that i thought 10.5's wouldn't fit a fox. What would need to happen here to make em fit? Here's the pics:

the reason im not doing deep dish is because i dont want to have to backspace, roll the wheelwell lip or beat the inside to get them to fit. does anyone make a 9in deep dish rim?

i haven't found one yet, but i haven't hunted them too long (just tonight actually after seeing Adders new wheels [8D]) but i did find a set of 18x9 deep dish's. Don't see why someone doesn't make 17x9 dd's.

finally after a while of searching, i found some helpful info if anyone wants to check it out. It's about putting 10.5" wheels on the rear of a fox. Not sure what tire size would max it out, but if anyone wanted to try it and tell me how it goes Heres the link:

17x10.5's on the fox

hmm 18x9's could work. using 245/40-18's or 255's the tire isnt much different from running 245/45-17's on a 17x9in rim...

They'll definatly be on the market. I still gotta get all the 5 lug conversion and the new wheels/tires. I think im going to upgrade my rear to disc brakes as well since i found a site that shows you how to do it (fairly easy and inexpensive with junk yard parts) so i'll let ya know when i get ready to sell em. My job is sending me out of town for a while, so i won't be able to get much done for the next month/2?? but i'll post up here, and probably slap em on ebay when im finished.
