Posted these pics just for fun, cause they do look good, and look like the actually fit in the first two pics, but they don't. We just threw them on for giggles, to see how far they really would stick out. As you can see it's A LOT!

The wheels (HRE. 19/20, 345/25/20) belong to a bud with a Caravaggio Wide Body. Don't know the offset, sorry.

Lots of great looking cars here too! thanks for posting everyone

@jayrich I have ruff racing rims on my current ride they make some nice wheels
Removing & replacing the rear quarter panels is fairly simple. I had a minimal amount of material that needed to be removed for correct alignment. This has to be one of the easiest vehicles that I've owned to do the work yourself. Good luck with it if you decide to go this direction with a wider lip wheel.
