do you have any pics of the wheels/tires? seems like they would bulge pretty bad. i think my wheel is at 8" i wish i knew someone with a wheel like mine that is 9.5" thats willing to swap for 2 8" wheels to stagger the width front to back...

i think the one of my strip is an 8 inch wheel, i used my friends that day and i looked on centerline;s site and as far as i can see they only made those in 18x 8 min ein the top pics are 18 x 8.5, now if i can find a set of weld racing 18 x 10's id buy them.
