Smile New wheels ordered

Well, actually they are used, but look pretty clean.

I've been trying to find a low priced set of 16's to put race rubber on for a while now. I found these on e-bay, bid on 'em, and won. Hope to recieve them soon. Now I need to score some tires. Anybody know of a screaming deal?

Used, Centerline 16 x 8, and cheap. Got them for $280 for the set.

Going on my truck.



I'll have to decide if the race rubber goes on the Centerlines, or my other 16's.

I loved the going on truck comment under details.

Easy decision, which are lighter? Those are what u mount w/. track treads. Or weigh current setup, rims only. Or w/. tires, whatever, establish a apples - apples comparo.

Altho if u want em for yeer driving wheels...

Lemme see a photochop of those wheels on yer truck, side profile. Then we'll revisit the idea.

Listen to my truck launching, in 4x4, with 3.73's and 31.5 inch tires. After the swap to 4.10's I'm expecting it to get worse, especially with 28 inch tires.

Umm, ya, hold yer breath buddy...

Not sure if I have a decent side shot of the truck, but I also don't have photoshop. So I guess it doesn't matter.

OK then, MS paint. U gotta have that. Go click off a good side pic of truck right now. Take those rims, cut & paste. It should work, & I can't do much on computers, but gettin better. Try that.
