I haven't driven on them. I still have some work on the front end to finish. I took out the rad and had it recored, and while I was in there I took out some sheet metal that was stressed cracked, and welded it up. I still have to paint and replace that.(Most likely after basketball season. I teach at a local high school and working with the senior girls team)
The originals were the 8.25 X 20s. As far as what they made the rims from, I have no idea, but they fit perfectly. Everything looks new to me.
