Default Wider tire in the rear?

I dunno I think any wider would look out of place on a small street car like Ive got. Im just happy as hell to finally get those fugly ass stock wheels off the syclone after 5yrs of hating them.

I'd have to see it from a little farther away to say for sure. In those pics you can't even tell what kind of vehicle it is...

I tried getting a couple pics with a better view but without lots of light my digi cam is pretty much worthless. If/when the sun comes out I'll get some better ones....not to mention give the poor thing a bath. Yeesh, its gotten funky on the under side .

Theyre ZR1s. Kinda common anymore but just about anything is better than the stock wheels that came from the factory.

Im no photographer so this is the best I can do. Keep in mind the truck has been sitting for a LONG time and needs a thorough cleaning/detailing. Id like to take a moment to officially thank FAST/TCI for holding my trans control hostage while theyre doing warranty work on it after I recieved a bad one from the factory. With their help Ive managed to not drive the truck more than just in/out of the garage this summer .

Are you running a wheel spacer?
