Looks like a 325/50/15 as he said it is and the tires 28 inches tall. Looks nice, kind of like mine minus the hot chick.

a lot of love has to be given to the front lower corner of the wheelwell. and i trimmed my bumpstops down. i think im going to have to roll me fenders still. u will be ok once u get them on as the tires dont grow like a slick does, im going to have to give it that much more room to account for tire growth.

I want to know what the *hint hint* *wink wink* means.

Back to the tires, when I bought my 15x10's (used) they had 325/50's on them and I loved the way they looked on my car. They took a little "persuading" to get them to fit, but with stock gears (3.42's) my car felt like a dog!!

But, when the 12 bolt and 4.10's go in, 325/50R15's will be back on!!

No I painted them. We paint rims @ our shop. Give us a call if you ever need some wheels painted. I have a whole thread in wheels and tires about the process from start to finish. Just search and you'll find it
