Ok, mocking up rear quarters and not really liking the tire fit. I have 17" MT Street Comps on the rear right now. I'd like to hear some opinions. It's planned to be a "Pro Touring" type build and I don't like how small the tires fit in the rear. Given the low profile tire, how big of a rim can I get under there? I'm thinking I can easily go to a 20" rim? Love to hear thoughts......Thanks in advance

Here's one with 19's and 20's. They fill the wheelwells. You just have to decide how much you want you want the wheels to fill vs the tires. There's some sport truck/SUV based tires that let you get the diameter with some more sidewall on 18's.

Those are much closer to the size I'm looking for. Appreciate the link.

Wahoo, finally some progress. Got the inners/outers and trunk floor in. Making repairs to the door supports before the floor pan gets attempted.
