I would like to stick with 16's to reuse my tires, but if 17's perform considerably better I will wait and save more $ for rubber. My current wheels are not so bad, but have improper offset.

17's look soooo much better

Thanks rbarn and i agree that extra inch makes a difference. I saw your wheels a day ago or

so and knew that I wanted whatever size you had, being 16 or 17, knew they were not 18's

though. The wheels I want are the one you have (Silver cobra 95's). Where is the cheapest

place to get'em.

This is where I bought mine:

I went 9" wide all around. It handles awesome, but as far as looks I wish I went with 8" wide up front. I find the 9" sticks out a bit too much.

I wanted to go 8" in front and 9". I haven't found 17x8's in the 95 cobra wheel, is this size unavailbable. Also, did you have to change something to the rear to fit 9" wides.

Had to roll back fender lips to make em not rub in the rear.
took it up to a body shop, they knocked it out in an afternoon and charged $60

Weird. I didn't get any rubbing at all in the rear. (that sounds gross [:'(])

he has M/T on his rear wheels

i have 17x9 all around too but i would rather 17x8 up front too w/ a 245 and the 17x9 rear w/ a 265

I've got 17s with 245's on the front and 275's on the rear (see sig), gotta get those rears rolled out a hell-of-alot more then they are now. It only rubs when one wheel is higher then the other (my driveway is hella crocked and hilly)

Dam those wheels look good on those two-tone Fox Hatchbacks. Im getting those for sure

now, I like some other wheels but there to expensive and sort of have a Ricer look to em.

I have a two-tone Fox also its Mettalic Grey w/silver bottom. I will get pics here real soon.

I plan on repainting entire car Mettalic Grey soon but after seeing yours it makes me want to

paint it with the two tones.
