I think you'd want to leave the wheelwells stock, and back space the cragers so you could get about a 8.5 slick in the stock opening. The colors appear a little washed out in the pictures. I'm thinkin you lighten the darkbrwn/burgandy to a lighter burgundy, and accent the panels with a pinstripe outline, maybe even fuzz shadowing the inside panel. I guess maybe you had to live in the times this kinda thing was popular to like it. It was an extension of the psychedelic drug infested, alcohol abuse, wild sex, acid rock era. An extended middle finger to conformity, followed by a "if you don't like it, fu k off dude". Some of us just have never gotten past that.
