    Default So you thought your 315's were big (tires)

    Just posting this from LS1tech. Non-narrowed rear end, fitting 17x12" rims with 345 tires. I don't know the owner, but his sig says 800rwhp for this car







    And the money shot



    Enjoy.

    This ain't a Honda, boy.

    It's got lots of power to RW, that's why it is so high.

    Far from a sleeper. anything that will go bottom 13's high 12's outta the box is not a sleeper.

    ohhhh those are expensive tires too! I think I can tell what they are just from the sidewalls

    they look like Cooper tire Zeon RS3, specifically designed for the Roush mustang.

    I could be wrong because on the site the size "only" goes up to a 325

    That's like saying that Enzo Edo Comp is a sleeper.

    I mean if I saw it on the road, I would just think it's any other Enzo with a different paint job, different wheels, and different exhaust.

    Y'all are posting pictures of heavily modified vehicles just to fit the wheels, this is 100% stock rear end and 1/4 panels... If I just wanted to post something with just big tires I would've just posted this:
