      Those are the tires I had on before this set. Very nice tires, 4 years ago I paid $95 each.

      You could always bang that lip up. I had to do it with my tires now.

        when you run wheels with high offset like that, it puts more stress on your wheel bearings. So you might wear out bearings quicker.

          You mean high negative offset. Positive offset is actually beneficial to the bearings.

            Look like dodge wheels to me.

            Or some stock ford wheels that were cut and flipped.

                Nice find. I bet they'll give your car a mean look to it, especially if they were gunmetal gray. Are they gonna stick out beyond the wheel wells?

                And if you got lowering springs like Blaze has, damn that would be badass.

                    No love for teh steelies? Awww, Thain, come on, you can't say a clean, nicely painted up steelie wheel doesn't look nice, especially on a car like Jeremy's '89.

                              Looks a lot like my original '87 rims, except for the dish. Mine are about 6.5" wide, since 255/60 tires were a tad too wide for them. Got a big set of calipers to measure 'em with? Alternatively, if they've got a Ford part number, that ought to be easy enough to look up.
