horrible idea


just think about when your driving in traffic, and miss blonde bimbo talking on her cell phone, smoking a cigarette, and playing with her I pod slams on the brakes in front of you, in her giant truck, and you have 3" wide tires on the front............

You'll lock up the fronts like crazy. You'd wan't a proportioning valve on your brakes at the very least to try and get more on the rears.

Not to mention rain! I seen the same foxbody everyday drive past where I worked and thought it would be awesome. Then I seen him slide through the intersection in the rain. He wasn't going very fast either. Could have been bad!!!

And that's why you get two sets of wheels...Skinnies/fatties for a warm summer day, and some cruising, and all seasons for everyday.
