[DeTomaso] Tire advice

[Mike Thomas]

But in this case it calls more to the esthetic and looking for that wheel to
sidewall to fender gap visual balance that somehow just clicks in your
mind's eye to give the overall appearance of balance to the look of the car,
as if it was designed that way from the get go.  Tires hiding under the
fenders and massive disks of bling with rubber bands for tires may look cool
on a fat-fendered candy apple slammer, but not on a Pantera.

Just my .02

But the wheels get bigger and the sidewalls get smaller. Same rolling
height, if you take care??
