Awesome, Jon! What size Mickey are you gonna run on that 11"?

And more importantly, when can I expect to see a timeslip?

They look great Jon.

John at CCW makes some of the best wheels. I had him make two different sets for my Corvette. And for service John mounted them on my car. Just can't say enough good things about John,Chip,and Mellisa at CCW.

Awesome width! (or how is it spelled..?)
Looks just as wide as the diameter, judging from the photo!
Far out!

I'm in the market for a couple 18" M/T rear tires, or equal brand!
Minimum 275's, I reckon...
New or used.
Anyone..?

Maxabo...fyi...John @ CCW is going to put on M/T equivalent to 305's on the rear drag setup you see above. Other options he mentioned to me were Nittos...

I understand that 305 (at least) has to come on there!
11" is wiiide!

But do you think he has a couple of tires for me, preferable used..?
My stock 18" rims from my old SL600 I believe are 9,5" wide.
Or could they be 10" even..?
Anyway, that's what I was planning on using here, so between 275's and 305's should be OK...
