    I'll be home on Dec. 19th
    sounds good vinnie. Those wheels are not very uncommon. you should be able to find a set of rears used, but if not they arent overly expensive to just buy new.

      You're running 28" tall tires in the rear, right? I'm planning on 275/50 NT555R's which are 28" tall. Just wondering how they'll look.

        275/50's are 26 tall tires

        275/60 are 28 inch tall

          I did have to grind the calipers, front and rear for the stars to fit.. I think mainly because when balanced the weights were glued to the inside of the rim.. If not for the weights I probably wouldn't of had to grind the fronts at all.. I didn't see the backspace(maybe missed it), fronts should be 1.75 for 4ths..

            Thanks Larry for the input. IIRC, my wheel weights are out of the way, so you should be ok. I know some people with the summit stars dont have to grind at all. The actual Welds require grinding though all the time

              No problem Ryan.. If I didn't have the same setup already I'd pick these up..

                Ah...maybe I'll get bold and go for the 325's. They seem damn wide though. Apparently you have to run offset bushing lca's with them?

                  My 28x10.5 took some work to get to fit. I know that they make a 295 in a 28" tall which is pretty damn wide and its a lot easier to fit.

                    those will not fit in the stock wheel wells

                    well they prolly will but with ALOT of work .. and some custom spec'd wheels that make them sit in there perfect

                      I'll be getting Nitto dr's, actual sectional width should be narrower than M/T's. Have to drive in the rain sometimes and don't want to have to buy new tires every summer.

                            BUMP!

                            I am now selling the rear wheels only as well. Vinnie has dibs on them as of now.

                            Front wheels (with tires) + rear wheels only all for $450. PM if interested

                            EDIT: rear wheels are also in perfect shape as well, this set will not disappoint
