Default Tire question.

hey guys, i dont visit this section very often but im kinda curious about soomething. for those of you who are running C4s in the 11.00 second range or faster what size/brand/kind of tires and rims are you using? can you fit whatever you are using under the stock body panels? anybody have any pictures of their setups? i am obviously a long way away from this but am just curious how it is being done currently. thanks!
