Default Deep Dish TTII's

What do you guys think of these rear rims? If I replace the rearend I will shorten it and get different offset rims. Look good?

Big pic here:

This is my car with the rear rims Photoshopped on. I have the regular 17x11 TTII's right now.

Do you mean cosmetically or do you not think the axle can be shortened that much?
I have the 17x11 rears so there is room on the rim. I think that pic is only about 2 or 3 inches deeper compared to the stock 17x11 rim.

My car is the top one and it is just a Photoshop of the rear rim to see what it looks like.
The LT1 car belongs to another person. He was trying to sell it last I heard. Here is the website:
http://www.cardomain.com/ride/547313
It has a shortened Ford 9 inch rear and 3 Piece FIKSE 18X12 rear rims. More pics can be found on that site.

I think it's just badass myself. The TTII's may not transfer over so well with it's 2 step lip. Maybe if I can find a slightly less dished TTII rim picture than the one I used in post #1, then it would look better. Maybe one inch less?

A deep dish would look good, but I think that's TOO deep. Take 2-3'' off of that lip and it would look great.

I think you're going to have to mini-tub it to make it work well. That's alot of offset.
