The recent talk of wheel sizes/options, etc. and the need for new tires has reactivated my thinking about new wheels for 'the Bird.' It's got some old Shelby mags on it, but only about 4.5" wide and I'd like to be able to put something wider than 165s on safely.

I like the American Racing Torq-thrust D's- a little 'hot-rod' and a little 'euro' at the same time (at least to my eye). They come in a 15x6 with a 5x4.5 bolt pattern, backspace 3 5/8", which SEEMS close enough to the stock 3 1/2"... Anyone have experience with these wheels on an Amazon? I'm thinking/hoping I could then mount 195s and get a little better handling/ride, etc.
