    New wheels for the whip?

    I need more rubber on my rear and my Razor's are only a 9" wheel.

    Should I:

    A) Put these CS40's on 20X10 rears
    or
    B) Send my wheels and have them widen to 10.5?

    If these CS40's where a deep dish it would be a done deal!



    or

    If I were going to send a wheel away to get widened, it would be a full 1" I like the wheels in the top picture best.

    Edit I thought you were going to only add 1/2...

    The Razors get my vote and look so right on your car with that color combination. Chrome just doesn't fit as well on your car. Can't you get the Razors in a wider and bigger size? Don't hold me to it, but I think I saw them at Summit in a 20" size?

    I think I'm leaning toward widening the Razors....

    Check out updated PIC on my first post.

    Widen to 12" with 315's and a little trimming
