^ I recall reading here on the Forum 3 years ago or so that this tire does not have nearly the 14.75 inch width a 375/20 should. Maybe my memory is bad - but that sticks in my mind.

And I thought that size was discontinued anyway ?????

Maybe I'm all wet . . . .

UPDATE: I found 1 link so far speaking to what I thought I remembered about the tire's width. Click on the middle photo in this post and you will see the tire has been mounted (it's a great looking tire - and wheel) and the tape measure clearly shows the tread width is 13 inches - not the 14.75 inches you would 'calculate' on a 375/20.

I'm likely in the minority here, but those wheels may be a bit too busy for my taste. I am anxious to see them from other angels though!

Love the wheels. I guess you should be ashamed of yourself, getting gas and snapping a pic for the community. What nerve!

I love that look. I'm planning to get the same wheel on my blade silver c7 just with a polished lip. Great looking car, I would like to see some other pics when you get around to it. Is the car lowered any? Just wondering as the wheel gap is narrow the way I prefer it.

Boring -- can't you folks come up with something new and dramatic? These look like 99+% of other rims.

Default HEY NOW, we need more views of the tires & rims!!!

WE definitely need a rear shot of the back tires to get the full impression of these wide tires. More pics required please.

PS: Has Tire Rack done a report/test on these tires as far as capabilities in the dry/wet, etc.?
Thanks.
Fuze
