Hi,

Following my conversion to IRS and a Disk K&LP front end, I dropped off my rims to get some 15x195x65 tires fitted only to find that they are only 4.5 (standard width I have now learnt) and need at least 5'+ for 195s, so now I am looking for some stock style steel rims in 5 inches or greater width. Would prefer BNE, but beggars can't be choosers. I don't really want to go for a narrower wheel, and don't want to go illegal by fitting them to the 4.5s.

Cheers
Peter

Micks only has the chrome (yuk). I really just want to go the stock look and keep the price reasonable.

i used to run the mangels, they should come in silver (eg stock grey). you can also try getting ur std wheels put on bigger bands, but cost?
