I'm late to the party but I have 315-30-18s on 18x10.5 on all 4 corners now. Wish I could run 335s all around but I'm too chicken to put flares on it, lol! I much more like the tucked look. :D

Well, first time for me entering one of these, it's still not done, but I have wide tires.

The rears are 315-35-17 on an 11" rim, the fronts are 245-45-17 on a 9" rim. All are Nitto NT555.

The best pictures I have right now.

Nice! Are those Mustang wheels by chance? I was considering that a while back but decided to run 18s to run the Rival tires. That's a clean wagon there! I dig your fender vents too! ;) Lots of cool mods on that car, well done.

Thanks Ben, I am a huge fan of your wagon myself! Yes, they are mustang wheels. I got them cheap, and they are staggered, and with the adapters they have the perfect backspace. I'll run them till I can afford something custom.

Thanks! Yeah I had looked long and hard at Mustang wheel options, a great price and 11" wide! I was leaning towards the FR500s but then worried about fitment and not being able to rotate decided to just do 275s all around on some MB wheels. Still have an eye on the 'Stang wheels for another project. :)

With the right adapters, there is alot of nice wheel options for the mustang.

I like the fr500s also.
