Looking for some tires and wheels.

Would like some old solid Centerlines and some 50's for the back and 60's for the front. NO 5 spoke wheels at all! Every place I've looked I'd have to order them. And that takes forever. Been looking for a while.

Thanks.

Brad...

Brad,

The corvette show is at the Puyallup fair grounds in the month of January. You can get a good deal on a set of wheels there. I'll go with ya!

Since the 50 or 60 denotes a percentage of the width to figure the heigth... when you use a skinny 60 series and a fat 50 they end up being close to the same heigth.

Brad, I think some Weld Draglites would look killer on your car! Just a thought...

Those are pretty nice wheels. How much? I bet they're alot. But I like them. I'm afraid I'm probably gonna have to order the wheels I want. Unless I find something else I might like at a good price.
