OK, who all has 9in wheels on the front of thier cars? The reason im askin is, yall all know i wanna put termi wheels on my car, (if u dont, then i wanna put termi wheels on my car) any who. If yall do, could u post a pic up. im worried i wont be able to put my car as low as i want with 9in wheels. sooooo......... How low can u go with 9in wheels in the front.


Also whats the smallest reccomend tire size to put on a 9in wheel. And the largest, i wanna do a 295, and i know it can be done, but will i have balloon tires if i do?
