Eli man, weren't you supposed to let me know when you ran across these? Are they 8" wide in the front and 9" wide in the rear?

-aren

Didn't you know I posted them here for you.... Took you long enough....

Let me know if you want them, I'll have them here within a few days....

What width tires can I run on those? I would like to see what the widest is that I can go with those. I am interested in them though.

-aren

You can do 265 pretty easy but 275 might be your limit.

How about the fronts? I am assuming that 235 is pushing it or can I go up to 245?

-aren

Most of us are using the 225 in the front on 8", I'd suggest doing the same...

Damn, I really didn't want to drop from the 235 width that I have currently. I don't know if running in disproportion from what I have now is good or not.

Also, am I going to need spacers for these?

-aren

I do think that these are the same off-sets that are on a set we have here..... Maybe a test fit would be in order.

Also when are you coming to pick up your caps? They are taking up way too much space around here......

I was never informed that they had arrived at the shop. Perhaps some higher payed and better skilled workers are in order.

I'm just messing with you buddy, I will come by next week to pick them up. Can you get these wheels so that we can perhaps do a test fit while I am there? Also, what day would you want me to come on over? Oh, and can you get some used tires to match the rears since the rears have a good amount of life left and the fronts are pretty much wasted?

-aren

Let me know if you really want them so I can have my buddy ship them here..... No extra charge.

Eli, I am very interested in the wheels, but it has to do with what tires I can fit on there, I don't want to tell you yes and then back out if they don't fit correctly. All I can tell you is that I am very interested in them, but I want to make sure that everything will work out. If you get them shipped in, how long would it take and would you want the money before hand?

By the way, the caps look good, but I don't know if it is from the pictures or what, but it looks like there is some issues on the border of where the red meets the black. It looks like there is still some gray in there. Am I making a mistake or is there some issues there?

-aren

I can't have the wheels shipped without payment as it wouldn't be fair to the seller. The wheels are 8" wide and the rears are 9" wide, I'd ask around to see what sizes they are rolling on their wheels to figure out what is the max you can fix on the set etc.

As far as the caps, they are here, if you're not happy with them, no problem, I'll be happy to cover the cost you payed to Pcars for the set. For some reason the photos posted here makes they look far worse than they are in person. "Thanks Rich"

Eli, that is what I wanted to know about the caps. I didn't know if it was the pictures that made them look like that or if they were sprayed like that. I will look at them in person and see how they look. I really like the wheels too, but there is something that I want to see before I tell you yes or no. Can you give me a day or two to get back to you?

-aren

Yeah, no problem, but of course I've got no control over any sale he makes if he makes one during this time. Not a sales pitch at all but just want to be clear he's not holding them for anyone.
