hehe, not really that great of tread. the edges are shredded and i even cut my hand on the wire mesh under da rubber. definately NOT good tread lol. but hey, i work at goodyear, im good plus the stock 225/60/15 wont fit under the front wells, i need 215s up front and i can go as big as 245s out back

but c'mon, one rim (no tire) alone is worth more than the $50 i paid, so i still came out on top :w00t:

and you guys know how those CHP cars painted the wheel navy blue, minus the lip and center caps? i think i might do something similiar but with red, once the car is painted of course

i'd be happy to do some scrounging but im not on my computer right now.

but i will say this, 10 holes are a pain in the hiney to clean! darn you brake dust! darn you little bits of melted rubber on the wheel!

and be careful of shredded tires cuz they might shred your fingers! darn dead tired :angry:

but they look sorta nicer now. i mean, my hands dont turn black from touching em no more
