    Found the wheels I'm getting for Grey October



    I'm getting them in a couple weeks at Pep Boys for $252 for 4 of them. I have a spare set of 15" tires in the garage so I'll be good with those. I'm getting them in 15x8. My question being will I be able to use the AR hub shown in the pic or will I have to have the stock hub showing through?

      No duce runs that soft 8's by cragar. GMGT runs those rims though. Evil those will look great! What are you going to run centercap wise? You using the AR ones and the Chrome Acorn lug nuts or you going to run something different? I can't wait to get my tires on my new rims but the fucking tire shop is backed up and we are suppose to get 8-14" of snow here this weekend so I guess it is good then.

        I'm hoping to run the AR caps, but I'm not sure if I can mount them or not.

          Acording to Summit the center bore on those wheels is 3.3" same as my Cragers, so yes you can run the Centercap. I paid $38 each for my 15x10s

                I used the centercaps with my us wheel 097 series. It makes the car look soo much better without the fugly hub sticking through

                    You sure, Tom? I checked Summits website and they're only about $0.05 cheaper than Pep Boys. And should I get the ones with 4" backspacing or 4.75" backspacing?

                        I think I know where the confusion is. Are you running US Wheels? I was looking at AR's lol.

                          Kickass! If I go with the US Wheels, which look identical to the AR's I was looking at, and some center caps it'll only be around $180. Then for my mechanic to mount and balance 'em will be $40. So all in all, I'll make out with spending a little over $220. That makes me a happy panda.

                            Exactly!

                            They are the US wheels.

                            You can still get AR centers for em
