Default Old Yeller - Wheels and tires WOOOHOOO

Not the $3000.00 set of rims you guys buy, but I like. Although Old Yeller looks like a go fast car. We just use it to hit Starbucks and breakfast on Saturdays.

Are yours 18X10 and 18X8.5? Mine is lowered did you have any fitment problems? I was told they will fit just fine even if the car is lowered.

Mike -

I hate you. I really do.

After getting that out of my system, cool wheels! Where did you get them? What tires did you end up with?

How about a picture with the wheels mounted on the car? I am interested to see what these look like on a yellow car.

The wheels look great.

What is the weight per wheel, front and rear?

Ditto that. For both questions.

Those things look good and they're dirt cheap which makes me thing they weight too much for my liking.

The wheels are off ebay and the first bid is normally $400....it then depends like all auctions who is interested at the time. Mine were obtained for $600 plus shipping and then I put Pirrelis on them, they fit great, but look better on a lowered car. They are slightly heavy, I seem to rem that they were about 28 pounds at the rear...the offsets hmmm cant rem that but I am sure somebody will post that...if not I posted the offset numbers some
