    Sold the old wheels. The new wheels are 15x8.5 195/50/r15 and the handles,lips and side skirts will be painted when the car gets re painted.

    I hate red, but your old set up looked better. This new is one is not bad looking either, though. Love that you've got 15's on there. Perfect if you ask me. Later, QD.

    I agree,i can tell he is "attempting" to stance it,it appears, and that tire is too big. Wheels would look much bettter with 195/45 or 175/50. You cant expect to run 8.5" wheels with no strech and have it look good.

    People have been running 195/50-15 tires on wheels with no stretch for over 30 years looking good as hell, man. The stretching part is what makes it look like shit. This tire wheel combo looks decent to me. I actually the tire could stand to be a little bigger because of the bulge. Later, QD.

    Thank you! I've been saying that 195/50/r15 is the most used.
    And yes it will be repaint but probably not til this winter it will be the same color and i'm gonna leave the lips and side skirts black .

    I can vouch. That was, by far, THE MOST popular size tire put on mini-trucks back from the mid 1980's. I was there, lolol. Later, QD.

    Wheel bearings? okay , i've ran plenty of offset and have never had them go bad and anything slammed is gonna wear out tires sorry my car is low and doesn't set like a monster truck it's about to go lower... It sucks to roll hard but it's worth it.
