Got some new wheels: Boss 338's in 20x10 and 20x8.5

OK,... by now you have seen this sweet bagged '68 that I saw for sale in Des Moines Iowa, at the Goodguys event last weekend.
I really fell in love with the wheels. Member "hot trux" was with me and he thought he could get them,... since he is an Eagle Alloy/Boss Wheel dealer.
So Yesterday he called about them and today he had them on his doorstep. (one day shipping from Nashville to central Missouri,... not bad!)

Anyway,... they are 20x10 (6.250" bs) and 20x8.5 (5.250" bs) with the ever popular 5x5 bolt pattern. That's right,... they are out there! But there is a catch,...

The front hub area has a problem. Like the Coys wheels,... there needs to be a little "clean up" on the disc rotor to get them to "seat" correctly. Also,... I'm not sure if the cheap plastic center cap, is deep enough.
With the extremely cheap price of these wheels,... I'm going to try to make them work. (I may even have to machine a new set of billet centers, to get them to bolt on)
We took one wheel out of the box and tried to set it on a stock rotor. The wheel were about 1/2" from seating against the rotor.
I'll keep you posted on my progress.
I'm stoked about this "economical alternative" to a Coys 20" wheel.
