Default 18" wheels on foxes?

Hey guys, I don't think I have ever seen pics of 18s on a fox. Does anybody have some to post, or have links? I'm trying to decide whether that borders the line of being ghetto or not-
I think the 18" saleen wheels look good;
I'm just trying to picture it [&:]

That's good news. I need to see pics of this car! Or any with 18s like I said, and saleens would be perfect.

Those look pretty good.
What size wheel and tire are you running front and back?

Do you have bad rubbing problems in the front? Are you still able to run your quad shocks? Did you have to modify anything in the back to have them sit right (like roll the fender)? Thanks.

No no mods at all. No rubbing at all, only a little bit when I turn the wheel all the way. The suspension is all stock.
