Those are HP Racing Evo's, not all all expensive.

Don't think they come any wider then 9" though?

They do look great too bad they don't come wider though...

Like 11" wide - You know they'd look killer with 315s out back

Damn straight. I think I would go with the 19's. I think it would need to do like a 2 inch drop. Give it a bad *** stance.

Do they make a 19 inch 285 or 295...i had 315s on mine before and I wanted to kinda keep that look with the deep dish...but I can sacrifice a few inches..
