I hear that.

Im trying to talk him down to 150 right now.

i think thats fair..

if i cant get them for that i might as well get some soft 8's or cragers or unique wheels.

which ever brand, the 8 holed black rims..

I can get a set of those for 275 at discount.

i wonder how much ill have to trim with 1 to 1.5 sticking out..

He said 250 is the lowest he can go..

Dunno about that price..

I think i will just get some plain ones and paint them.

That should be cool until i can save up for something nice.

Wonder how the xtream wheels would match up.

Also found some camero wheels from a 80 model.

Thinking about just getting spacers instead of new wheels.

i just want that wider stance more than anything.

The back wheel sits further in doesnt it?

Im guessing ill have to have a slightly bigger spacer in the rear for the
front and back to match up?

Yeah the rear wheels sit in a little bit but it looks fine IMO. Even with a wider stance that pushes them past the fenders, I don't really notice it much.
