You need 20s to fill up the fender wells. Or go all nostalgic hotrod theme w/ prostars skinnies and deep dish ones at the back.

yeah no whitewalls for this..i gotta figure out what offset i need for the rears because the end of the hub is like 6 inches from the inner fender so. Hopefully someone can help with this...oh and as for the gas tank, thats how it came from factory. nothing to worry about, its just a weekend cruiser
