Thank you,

Thanks

Wheels are 18x8 and 18x9.5 Riddlers. BS I believe are 4.5 front and 5.5 rear. I'd have to go out and check on tire size as the wheels came with the tires. I think the rears are 255/40s and fronts are 235/45.

Rearend is out of a '72. I have the original that I'm planning on building.

Re: Who's running 18" wheels post pictures

Anyone ever try running 18 x 9.5 all around?

I like the wide tire look, but really want to rotate them as this is my DD. (15k miles annually) As long as my turning radius isn't worse them my ZQ8 S10, I'm fine. That thing is horrible.

I second that - I like the fatty look all the way around as well. Anyone? Pix? Issues with that?
