4.5" weren't an option at that time? How's this then?

To be honest, if it was mine I'd be going for 4.5" steel wheels, even if they aren't original.

What? You don't like that drag-race look? :lol:

Or is it that the steering wheel is on the wrong side (which is the right side of course

I have always felt 12's are a compromise. Not the old school coolness of 10's but not the toughness of 13's. Kind of girly and in between. Flick em and find a set of 10's. Put aside a few bucks and get something different to the rest of the crowd. IMO dont settle for anything less than a 10x6, look great with the rubber stretched on them. You have the flares you may as well fill them up.

So... anyone interested in a swap for a set of 10s. I might be hard pressed to find someone keen considering the current state of the poll!
