Found a set of my dream wheels while browsing ebay and had enough lying around to get 'em. After waiting for over 2 months they finally got here!

I will be refinishing them and getting new barrels/lips to adjust the size to appropriately fit the car, but for now I am just excited I own a set. Hopefully in the coming months I can get my suspension back together and get the car on the ground so I can start figuring out final sizing/offsets.

Unsure of exact size, but I know their 15s.

Can't take credit, bought the car with them, pretty sure they have been on it forever.

I thought it looked familiar. You need to score some centercaps! My wheels are currently 16x7 but I'm hoping to get them to 16x8 or 8.5. I might go with a staggered lip setup with bigger barrels in front and smaller lips since I know swapping out the knuckles and control arms pushes the wheel out a little further. I am just waiting on my Raider to sell and my buddy to buy a tubing bender so we can fab the rear suspension up.

Nice!

I actually like it without the center caps
