Default widest tires?

i know they are making the 2003 SVT rims in 4-lug now, but im pretty sure that they are more expensive <IMG src=smileys/smiley5.gif border="0">. check out www.tirerack.com, they dont thave that great of a selection, but it is a cool site. they dont come much cheaper than the cobra Rs <IMG src=smileys/smiley2.gif border="0">.
