      You think your rear wheels are wide?

      How about some 355/25/19s on a 19x14..



      Saw these on another forum, I guess they are going on a wide body Supra. :rolleyes5

      I dont like how the wheel sticks out past the tire like that. I see that a lot on imports. But the wow factor is still up there.
      $100 bill? How do you get those?

      WOW. Sure would like to see those mounted on the car. Are they running those on all four corners??

      Is there a point where your wheel width just becomes to big that its having a negative impact on handling or turning? At least from a pro-touring point of view? Yeah, more grip for pro-street type, but I would think turning would become worse once those rear wheels hit a certain width, No?

      Thanks

      Adam,

      I agree on the wheel sticking out past the tire. 19x13 would have been much better for that combo. I hope he's running something wide up front, or else that car is going to probably push pretty bad

      I remember Merlin's twin-blown C3 Corvette had a pair of 19x14's on the rear w/345 tires. The wheel maker had to use two 7" hoops to build the rims. Definitely wild stuff!

      I'm planning to install my Pirelli 365/35/17's on my car for the Texas Goodguys event. My rear wheels are 17x13's. The combo should look impressive from the rear,huh.
