I think those are the wheels that Roger Grubb should have bought for his V8 car.....too late now.....

Killer price, the set of identical rims that is on Jennys car cost me like $100 plus shipping and I think I sold them to her for like $80 or so.....

I do have a spare 15x7 just like those (in silver, hahaha), if any one is interested....make sure you inspect those wheels, I've seen cracks devolop on the lug nut seating portion.

Mike and Trekkor,

Yep, please keep an eye out for some cheapie 4 bolt steelies. Wide w/ that positive offset. So I may squeeze 'em under some mildly rolled fenders. YUMMIE!!!

15" or 16". Unless someone wants to sell some 17's... cheap.

And "Thanks" Brad for the lead on Stockton Wheel. I'll call them right now. =-)

Hey, 5" backspace is about 36mm offset. With the hoosiers
do they actually fit under the fenders? Or have you rolled
significantly anyway?

Thanks

Last time I checked with them it was about $75 per wheel for a 15 rim...you need to supply the inner section, they supply the outer half.

Diamond Racing Wheels makes some 16" steel rims, the don't show the correct offset online, but I know they can make special offsets (FWD) if you ask them.

I was looking at them today on Trekkors car. They look great, but appear to need a bit of fenderlip rolling to clear comfortably. He had a few rub marks on one side. My 8X15 with 5" backsspace with the same tires needed some fairly agressive rolling, but clear with the stock fender.

what looks like chrome lugs adds a nice bit of brightness. the black center caps completes the fashion. looks swell.
