Re: 15" or 16" rallys

depends on your backspacing. If you have 6lug or 5lug, you can use the 73-87 Rallye 15X7 or 15X8's and they look real good, got them on mine but mine isnt lowered much.

16" will fit just fine, you need 4-5" backspacing though. Stockton can hook you up, also try wheel vintique.

I think i'll be looking to get the 15"x8" rallys and just get a bigger tire. I was hoping someone would post a pic with that size on a slammed truck?
