Even if the bolt pattern is similar the wheel won't be supported to run true or carry the load as intended. | | | | | Joined: Dec 2002 Posts: 2,549 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Dec 2002 Posts: 2,549 | Wow!, I'd love to have a set of those 10.00x20, U.S. Royal gangster whitewalls, on my COE, but $1300ea., is a bit much. | | | | | Joined: Jul 2018 Posts: 238 Rustbucket Ranch | | Rustbucket Ranch Joined: Jul 2018 Posts: 238 | Thanks guys, looks like I'll be on the hunt for some stud piloted wheels. Plus I still need to go by the tire shop and see if they'll work on these original Budds. | | |
