What kind of rim/tire combo is that blue 'Cuda on the website header?  That looks almost perfect to me!   I'm guessing that the tires are a 275/50 or a 295/50, and that the rims are roughly 15x10.  That looks so sweet!   I'd like to ask the owner how hard he had to work to get those to fit, and if they rub the fender lip.

Hey Beenjon.  I don't believe the cars in the site banner are actual member's cars.  Sorry.  It does sit well, though!

Back in the day I had a set of wheels like that blue 'CUDA and they were 100% free.  Still I didn't like 'em
and I just have them around to roll old chassis in the yard and such

Your right NZ   :puke: eighties  :puke:

I don't know what kind of 'puter you got there NZ but I have definitely seen an improvement in the speed of this site since the move.  I am pleased that things are moving along quickly again!

Yeah, speed is all fine and dandy, but if all the tech posts from Aug 14th to Sept 18th are gone
for ever, then it was one hell of a nasty price to pay!! Is there any way to recover that stuff?? Jeff
