Wow.... I haven't seen many people "widening" their wheels. It seems very dangerous. I can't say I like that look with 60 series tires.

You're right. I forgot they were steelies. Still, I think it's ugly as hell.

I have heard of guys running custom steelies for drift. They make them in any width up to 11" with any offset you want.
