New Wheels and Tires on car!!
« on: May 24, 2005 - 11:24:20 PM »
OK got my 60$ set of wheels on the with new tires.....had to go with 235 all way around  Was the widest they had for a 7" rim  here it is...looks ok, and the switch from 14" to 15" made quite a bit of difference in handling.  Almost held out for 245 or 255 in rear, but was ready to get it on the road.

Hey Robb,
   Thats $15 each, thanks to this site.  I think it was MikeTyler that posted about someone selling parts in TX, I called the guy up and met him the next day to pick them up.  The wheels are flawless too, Chrome is perfect!! so is the Black! It sure beat the heck out of me spending $200 a wheel plus the tire cost like I was planning!  They may not be spanking new polished alum. like I wanted, but for the $$$ I am ;D :guitar:
