Looks good. I still prefer Greg Weld fronts, and Prostar rears. But anyways, any rear pics? I want to see how them tires look! 28x12.5-15 right? Thats what I plan to switch to.

They look great, but the rear tires look a tad to big for the wheels.

Actually you have to grind alot. Alot more than any other wheel. Grinding to fit prostars is beyond scary, and that is not even close for fitting a greg weld wheel. You have to pretty much take them down to nothing. I would have waited for the right ones to come out.

no worries i have aerospace brakes all the way around. i do remember grinding calipers on my car and for 2 other guys! alot of work!

anyone interested in a set of Weld Pro Stars with rubber up front and back, lol!!!
29" hoosier QTP's 10.5", and 27" sportsmans up front. about 50 miles on the front tires and a dozen passes on the QTP's.

doh! no bother there, they don't make the rears in 7.5" backspacing. i would sell the tires if anyone is interested.
