Default The New Welds are on!!!
Ordered the wheels from Jim's Racing tires 3 weeks ago to the day and received the wheels last night!

Wheels are 15x4 & 15x10 w/ 5.5bs. Tires are MT sportsman front and rear are 28'' Hoosier QTP Surprisingly these fit really well, This is the only spot that will need clearance on the passenger side. No BFH or Bump stop removal Needed.











The Only spot that will need to be trimmed



Big thanks to Speed Inc for rush ordering the tires so I could have them by this afternoon

Very nice! The stance looks aggressive. How did you fit 5.5" bs in the rear? Shortened axles? if so, how much each side?
