I'd leave the 6" wide wheels if I were you. I have 4.5" on my corvette and it can be difficult to brake in some conditions as in the frotn tires like to lock and skid. I have a heavy front as well and am going to go wider on the fronts to help out more.Ryan

It's fun to change things, I think you would like the 4.5s. They are great looking wheels opens the view.

Unless you have clearance issues like we had with the Thames, I would recommend staying with wider wheels .......... the 4" ET's we had to use get a little "light" at high speeds

And not to mention if you get caught in the rain they suck for handling. Especially with huge rear tires.Ryan
