Crazy vs Normal

I guess I come from an era where we buy rims to put on our cars and not a car to put on our rims. As a guy who likes to put the pedal on the floor, there is know way this can be safe and all this riding on the inside walls of the tires............. What the hell is that all about??? Camber kings or something like that??? I have an SRT8 as well and have never seen these type of setups before and it could be because the Z's generate a more youthful interest than muscle cars and this is just a trending thing right now. Anyway, I ordered some 20x10.5 with a wheels with a +25 and 285/30/20's that I want to fit on all four corners, I seen several cars running really wide up front and I'm gonna test fit these to see as I would really like this to work instead of stretching the tires and fooling around with camber kits. I'm lowered on H&R Springs and will have the wheels later this week and will find out then. There are a handful of guys with 10.5 wheels up front, but with 255, 265, but the meaty tires thread shows a lot running 285's up front, but with 18 and 19 inch wheels and a higher offset I believe. Only one way to find out, hands on for me
