I'm looking at the rear tires. The tire OD looks no more than 26" diameter because it is less than the wheel arch radius. The choices in modern tires with less than 26" OD is very limited. The tire's side wall looks no more than 3.5" tall. A 26" diameter tire with 3.5" sidewalls would be mounted on a 19" diameter wheel. On the other hand, that may be a 335/30R18 tire (25.9" diameter, 3.95" sidewalls).

By the way, the front wheel is smaller in diameter than the rear wheel. Doesn't it look bitchen? Also notice how the front wheel arch overhangs the top of the front tire.

Why can't the Pantera vendors offer wheels like that? Hopefully it won't be too long before someone does.

Chip has done a wonderful job! Very tasteful. Bravo to Mr. Foose.

By the way, I visited the various links posted here, and I used a search engine to look for more info regarding Mr. Foose's Pantera. As I did I couldn't help but be annoyed by the way other websites inundated me with ads, pop-ups, etc. I have to take a moment to plug our forums. We eschew all that crap, to give you an experience free of all that commercialism. Here each of you are considered family, its just me and Debbie hoping to break even.
