getting them for my lx fox,

the rears are 15x10 and fronts are 15x7.

i really like the skinny look on the front with draglites and are 15x7 skinny enough? or are those like the same width as ponys?

and if anyone has that wheel set on there foxbodys, post a pic please!

Exactly . 15x7 is more street oriented than say the usually 15x3.5 and 15x8 .

I mean think they'd look alright but for the strip idk because the size.

I never dd them, but I did drive in the rain a couple times. As long as you don't have a heavy foot and don't tail gate people you shouldn't lock them up.

Here's my 15 x 3 1/2
