I thought 11" was about as wide as you can go without being tubed or sticking out. It certainly looks like the tire is flush with the fenders. Are you tubed or do think going with a 17" wheel as opposed to a 18"+ wheel allows a 11.5" to fit so nicely?

The polished trim makes the look. Perfect match with the overall look of the car. Next time don't take a picture of your car in front of a dumpster though... j/k I love the "behind the warehouse" shots. Especially the low angles.

Not tubbed but I am not sure on the wheel offset. I bought them used.

You're car looks great. I've never been a fan of the black wheels & blacked out look, however they look quite nice on your car.
