Re: Which Wheels?

thark_ ain't kidding, a lot of people have them. Personally, that doesn't bug me.

Here's my truck on them, just got them two days ago. Drop party is happening next weekend.

Where can you find the large diameter soft lip Cragars at? I tried summit and jegs, and nothing. Actually, all I've seen have that nasty standard offset.

Re: Which Wheels?

I found them on Cragars website but it's down right now. I did find them at this tire site on the web. It looks like they offer them in a 12,34 and 50mm backspacing. http://www.performanceplustire.com/b...sport-polished
I also found this cool wheel tire calculator that show the difference in tires and wheel sizes fit on your wheels. http://www.rimsntires.com/specs.jsp

Re: Which Wheels?

Anyone ever look into the Ridler wheels? Thought that may be another option for us Squares. http://t1.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:A...pCCh7TRIy9NLLA

Re: Which Wheels?

As you can see I'm not too good at posting pics... But the site will take you to the image. I think jdwheels distributes them
