^Those are the flat fives the OP is referring to, he's looking for the fat five, slightly different.

Sorry I can't help with the shop OP.

I don't know if you've seen this one. Not silver but you kinda get the idea.

So are you gonna do it?

Personally I think you can pull it off if you run 40 series tires.
