This is the 3rd set of rims on our 544 project;
We started with "Pana"-type rims with the wrong off-set, the rear tires were rubbing the fender, so we moved on to stock 'skinnys"
Now we have another set of rims widened from 4" to 5.5", with stock off-set.
Tires are old 185's for temporary use, we are still checking the ride quality and to confirm if there are any clearance issues before we go to 195's
We are now hunting for chrome trimming as shown by 122_Canadian's widened steelies post. (Thanks Craig)
