    Nope! Ive seen 20 on a lowered fox. Depends on how wide and back space your going with. Also how wide of tires too. Just gotta make room in the back side of the fender and take the quads off.

    i think 18 might be too big... theres somtimes i regret getting 18. i would do 17 on a fox? what are your overall plans for the car? racing, show, street car or what?

    Just ordered one of each!

    I had a slight problem with BOZE taking my money and not sending me my wheels for the Camaro. I waited over 4 months and still didnt get my wheels! So I would stay away from them.

    Well I guess it could have been the shop I was dealing with too.

    17" and DR's. Street tires will act like steel roller skates!

    I put about 250 miles on the street on my 275/40/17 ET Street radials & didn't have a problem with em. Maybe if you're talking about running around with low pressure or something I could see that, but I thought that they were completely streetable, and this is coming from somebody who bought road race tires because he didn't trust driving around on DRs (because I thought it would be exactly as you said, like steel roller skates lol).
